 HISTORY

Coal mining in Government sector had started in India in the year

1956. Until then it was totally under the private sector.

In September 1956, Government of India established its own coal

Company National Coal Development Corporation (NCDC).

Collieries run by the Railways formed the nucleus of NCDC. This

Was to fulfill the fast growing energy requiremens in the country to

Support rapid industrialization taking place through 5-year plans of

the Government. On, November 1975, a new public-sector company

Coal India Ltd. (CIL) was formed to enable better organizational &

Operational efficiency in coal sector. Thus, CIL started functioning in

1975 with 5 subsidiary companies under it.These were BCCL, ECL,

CCL, WCL & CMPDIL. In due course of time 3 more companies

Were formed under CIL by carving out certain areas of CCL and

WCL. These were Northern coalfields ltd (NCL), South coalfields

Ltd (SECL), & Mahanadi coalfields ltd (MCL).

Government of India held 100% equity of CIL from 1975 till 2010.
