Gut feeling is that the next RNS will simply be along the lines of "We've now received the GoI's response to our Statement of Claim and will provide our response submission to the court of arbitration on/before ."
I think the next steps from there will largely depend on the strength of GoI's response. Panthera will probably need a month or two to digest the specifics of the GoI submission to make this assessment.
If GoI believe their case to be weak, if I were them I'd make as robust a response as possible in November via the court, and then pursue an offer to settle separately, putting the ball firmly in Panthera's court.
If GoI believe their response to be strong, worst case is they dig their heels in and potentially we're looking at mid-2027(ish) for the final hearing.
My personal timeline is we'll get a feel of how this is going to go in Q1 next year, but I would be delighted to receive positive news sooner.
