The Kanjurmarg landfill, operated by Antony Waste Handling Cell Ltd., is safe from the axe for now. But its fate remains a major source of worry for the company's shareholders and the city's residents alike.
The apex court’s quashing of its over $4 bn relief request did little to dim the telco’s stellar all-round show in FY25 or the market’s love for the stock.
