New Delhi: Amid nationwide coronavirus lockdown, state-owned Coal India has extended the deadline for submission of expression of interest (EoI) from power generation companies (gencos) for rationalising coal linkages. The linkage rationalisation refers to transfer of coal supply source of a power plant from a far-end mine to the nearer one.
“Due to the extension of the period of COVID-19 linked lockdown, and on receipt of the request of the power plants experiencing difficulties in collection of the data/details related to the rationalisation of linkages, the last date of submission of the EoI…is extended from April 23 to May 10,” Coal India LtdNSE -2.77 % (CILNSE 3.81 %) said in a letter to power gencos.
