Coal India (CIL) faces an unprecedented task. The miner may now have to act as a bank for storing surplus coal produced from the captive mines of private power companies. The coal so banked, would be returned to the companies once their power projects are commissioned.
On the recommendation of the Planning Commission, the government has formed a high-level committee to explore the possibility of introducing a “coal banking system”.
