Coal India records all-time high capex of Rs 13,115 crore in FY21
Coal India on Thursday said its capital expenditure (capex) grew more than two-folds to hit an all-time high of Rs 13,115 crore in the just-concluded fiscal.
CIL’s original sanctioned capex budget was Rs 10,000 crore for FY21.
“Coal India Ltd (CIL) more than doubled its capital expenditure to an unprecedented high of Rs 13,115 crore in FY21…. Against the capex of Rs 6,270 crore in FY’20, the company clocked 109 per cent growth amid the Covid slump,” the company said in a statement.
This comes at a time when the Centre had advised CPSEs of the country to scale up their expenditure to boost the economy.
