Electrosteel Castings’ joint venture (JV) - NDMCPL has received a stay order from High court of Jharkhand against de-allocation of coal block. The company along with other venturers had entered into a joint venture in the name of North Dhadhu Mining Company (NDMCPL) for allotment of coal block in North Dhadu at Jharkhand. ECL holds 48.98% ownership interest in NDMCPL.

The Ministry of Coal (MoC) had allocated Coal mine at North Dhadu to NDMCPL. However, due to procedural bottlenecks the production of Coal at North Dhadu mine could not be commenced as per schedule. The MoC, vide its letter dated November 22, 2012, decided to de-allocate the coal block allotted to NDMCPL and it was also recommended by Inter Ministerial Group that the bank guarantee provided by the venturers be forfeited.

Against this decision of MoC, a writ petition was filed by NDMCPL with the High Court (HC) of Jharkhand. The Jharkhand HC vide its order dated December 05, 2012, has stayed the proceedings against NDMCPL.
