IMG recommends bank guarantee deduction of Tata Power and Hindalco

JSW Steel and Himachal Emta Power today lost a coal block in West Bengal, while Tata Power and Hindalco Industries are likely to lose the bank guarantee for their block in Jharkhand. Today, the government cancelled the allocation of the Gourangdih ABC block in West Bengal’s Raniganj coalfields. Deallocation of the block, being developed by JSW Steel and Himachal Emta Power, was recommended on Friday by an inter-ministerial group (IMG) looking into irregularities in the allocation of coal blocks.
