“In compliance with the ad-interim order of the Supreme Court, the company has suspended production and sale of endosulfan all over India,” Excel Corp Care said in a statement to the Bombay Stock Exchange.
Coromandel International Ltd told the BSE: “The Supreme Court has passed an ad-interim order on May 13… Consequent to this, the Company has suspended production and sale of Endosulfan.
