Delta Corp Ltd, the only publicly listed gaming and hospitality company in India, has announc💦ed it has acquired a 45% stake in Waterways Shipyard Pvt Ltd for🐬 Rs. 15.5 Crores.

The shipyard, b🤪ased in Udupi, Karnataka, built the Casino Royale vessel, which is operated by one of Delta Corp's🌱 subsidiaries.

"Given the significance of marine ve💃ssels to the company's casino business, this investment is expected to bring strategic ben𒉰efits and a long-term partner to support Delta Group’s vessel building and maintenance requirements", Delta Corp said in a statement.

All its offline operations were forced to shut down at the start of India's coronavirus lockdown, and no date is in site for when casinos can reopen in the country.
