Tilaknagar Industries (NSE: TI) was subject to a search proceeding by the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI), Mumbai Zonal Unit, initiated on 22 Oct 2026 under Section 105 of the Customs Act, 1962, it said in a filing on 23 Oct 2026. The search relates to an industry-wide review of the applicability of HSN Code for import of bulk Scotch.

The search and the review behind it

The search was initiated at the company's Corporate Office and at its manufacturing facilities at Ahilyanagar on 22 Oct 2026, and concluded at 18:00 hrs IST. The company understands that the search operations form part of an industry-wide exercise by the Revenue Authority under the Customs Act, 1962.

The review concerns the applicability of HSN Code for import of bulk Scotch. The company says it has extended its full co-operation and has furnished all documents, clarifications and information sought by DRI during the search.

No impact stated so far

The company says there is no impact on its financial, operation or other activities as of now. Its earlier filings of 12 Oct 2026 reported a change in designation of KMP/SMP and a change in management, and this filing does not refer to them.

What the search means for Tilaknagar Industries shareholders

On the company's own account, the search has no impact on its operations so far, and its response has been co-operation with DRI. The filing does not say whether any show cause notice, order or demand has been issued, what duty or penalty may be at stake, how the search will be resolved, or how long the review will take.
