The coal ministry on Tuesday announced revision in the timeline of the second tranche of auctions for commercial mining.
In a statement, the ministry said the last date for registration of bidders and sale of tender documents on the MSTC website and the bid due date have been revised.
The last date for submission of bids has been extended to July 8, 2021.
The revised timeline will be uploaded on the MSTC website, it added.
The government had in March offered 67 coal mines for sale, launching the second tranche of commercial coal mining auctions and termed it a step towards ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’.
