The trials for Coal India’s in-house e-auction platform have been carried out satisfactorily, and the mechanism can have a full-fledged rollout across the company’s coal-producing subsidiaries, officials said Sunday.
A total of seven trial auctions involving nearly 18 million tonnes of coal have been conducted, they said.
The mining major has entrusted its wholly owned subsidiary Central Mine Planning & Design Institute (CMPDI) to rollout the in-house e-auction system, with technical assistance from the National Informatics Centre.
