The energy demand of the country is soaring which is resulting in rising demand for dry fuel. The two flagship Subsidiaries of Coal India Limited, Madhya Pradesh based NCL and Orissa-based MCL have raised their bar in the need of hour. The Ministry has acknowledged the same with accolades.

In a groundbreaking performance, Both the Coal Companies under the headship of CMD P.K. Sinha jointly scripted History and made a record by dispatching a whooping one million tonnes of coal in a single day. The performance is vital as it accounts for about 50% of the total coal off-take of the parent company of NCL and MCL i.e. Coal India. The outstanding performance of both the companies is also contributing to build the ample stocks at TPPs amd leading to ameliorate the coal stock situation at Thermal Power Plans.

The CMD NCL and MCL and Functional Directors of the companies have dedicated this achievement to the tireless effort of the ground employees working day and night for the energy aspiration of the country.

The NCL and MCL jointly have produced 147.01 MT till date in this fiscal and have dispatched 163.5 MT of Coal to Coal Consumers of the nation.
