Som Distilleries and Breweries Ltd clarifies on child labour issues

In response to media reports concerning child labour issues at our company we wish to clarify that these concerns are not related to Som Distilleries and Breweries Limited but relate to our associate Private Limited company which deals in country liquor primarily, and not the listed company as reported.

Also we wanted to clarify that labour for the associate company is supplied by contractors. It may be the fault of the contractors who may not have got proper age verification done of the workers being allowed to work at that company. That company has extended full cooperation to the authorities regarding the issue and have terminated the services of the vendor through the directors of that company.

We want to assure you that all the plants of our company are fully compliant with all applicable laws and have all the necessary permissions.
