Tata Chemicals Ltd on Monday (October 27) said its subsidiary, Tata Chemicals Magadi Ltd (TCML), has won a legal dispute with the County Government of Kajiado, Kenya.

The Court of Appeal, Nairobi, in its order dated October 24, 2025, ruled in favour of TCML, declaring the demand for land revenue arrears of ₹783 crore (Kenyan Shillings 11.84 billion) as arbitrary and illegal.

The court noted that Tata Chemicals Magadi Ltd is not obliged to pay the arrears in the absence of an open and accountable framework for determining land rates.

The company had previously disclosed this pending litigation in a letter dated August 14, 2023. As of March 31, 2025, the revised demand from the County Government stood at ₹783 crore.
