COMPANY PROFILE
Coal Industry Profile:
The journey of civilization starts from Palaeolithic age (Old Stone Age, before
8000 B.C) to Mesolithic age (middle stone age, 8000 B.C to 4000 B.C) to Neolithic
age (new stone age, 4000 B.C to 2500 B.C), and during the course of this journey
mankind had required the knowledge of mining and metallurgy and the use of Copper
(Chacolithic age 1/800 B.C-1000 B.C) as the first metal after the stone tools. Thus
mines and metallurgy stated since the dawn of civilization. among the greatest gifts
that Mother Nature bestowed upon the great land of ours are the rich coal seems
which lie beneath its surface, seams which provided the nation with a heritage of
bountiful stocks of energy. India’s prosperity and power are based largely on coal.
Because human progress and civilization makes ever increasing demand on heat
energy, her easily accessible and thick coal seems have given India the means to play
a major role in the field of human progress and prosperity and that is what is being
done by Coal India and India’s Coal Industries.
COAL: Coal is composed primarily of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen besides several
chemical compounds, many of which are known. It is formed from vegetation which
has been consolidated between other rock strata to form coal strata and already by the
combined effects of microbial action, pressure and heat over a considerable time
period.
TYPES OF COAL: Depending on certain characteristics Coals are divided into for
broad categories; viz
34
MAJOR COALFIELDS IN INDIA
India’s major coalfields are Raniganj mostly in west Bengal and partly in Bihar,
Jharia, Karanpura, Bakaro, Rajmahal, etc. in Bihar, WardhaVally and Kamptee
coaldfields in Maharashtra, Korba, Sohagpur, Penchvelly, Tawa-velly and Chirimiri
etc. In Madhyapradesh, Singhruli-partly in MP and partly in U.P. Talcher and Ib-
Valley in Odisha, Assam coalfields in Assam, Meghalaya etc and Singareni in
Telengana.
1) Quarrying or open-cast
2) Underground or deep
The increase in coal production from 1920 to 1946 predominantly due to the
Second World War.
This was the scenario before independence. After independence the work of
nation building was started.
For the second Five Year Plan period stress was given on building heavy
industries in the country and accordingly the demand for coal increased substantially.
35
Due to the increasing demand of coal it was felt by the government that the
supply could not met only by the existing network of companies and thus the
requirement to restructure the Coal Companies was felt necessary.
Accordingly the 11 collieries which were under the different Railway
Companies were brought under one umbrella and the first coal company of the central
Government was incorporated in October.1956 and was called the National Coal
Development Corporation Ltd.
As years passed and demand for coal kept on increasing the private owners
were indulged in a number of malpractices and since the cooking coal reserves were
limited (Which is existing even today) there was requirement for taking over the
cooking coal mines. Thus, on 16.10.1971, the entire Cooking coal mines were taken
over by the Central Government and on 1.05.1972 they were nationalized.
Thus the first Government owned Cooking Coal Company; Bharat Cooking
Coal Limited was formed.
The private owners of the non-cooking coal mines were indulged in rampant
malpractice, violating safety norms. Their sole objective was to maximize profits and
consequently, the life, security and future of the 3.5 lakhs employees were jeopardy.
Thus, the government had to act fast and accordingly the non-cooking coal mines
were taken over on 30.1.1973 and they were nationalized on 01-05-1973. COAL
MINES AUTHORITY LIMITED (CMAL) was formed and NCDC ltd was brought
under its fold. The CMAL was operating through three divisions, Eastern, Western
and Central Divisions.
To make the management of the coal mines easier it was felt that there should
be only one company to monitor and after doing further restructuring COAL INDIA
LIMITED was formed on 1.11.1975.
The following subsidiaries were being monitored by Coal India Limited:
1) Bharat Cooking Coal Limited (BCCL)
2) Eastern Coalfields Limited (ECL)
After this further restructuring was done and eventually on and from 1-04-
4986 two more subsidiaries were carved out of CCL and WCL. South Eastern
Coalfields Limited (SECL) and Northern Coalfields Limited (NCL) being the Sixth
and Seventh subsidiaries of Coal India Limited. On 03-04-1992 the eighth subsidiary,
known as Mahanadi Coalfields Limited (MCL) came into existence.
