Majority of the mining stocks are trading in the green led by MMTC and Ashapura Minechem whereas MOIL and Coal India Ltd (CIL) are the few stocks trading in red. As per a leading financial daily, CIL has given green signal to a long-pending proposal for the set up of a 1,600 MW pithead power plant at the Sundergarh district in Orissa. CIL had planned to enter the business of power generation almost a decade ago in 2005 and had given an in-principal nod to subsidiary Mahanadi Coalfield for the foray then. Mahanadi Basin Power, a special purpose vehicle set up by Mahanadi Coalfields, will erect the power plant at an estimated investment of Rs 110 bn. Nearly 800 acres of land in coal-rich Sundergarh district have been earmarked for the project but government clearance would be required for the proposed power project. The Odisha government has offered 50,000 cubic feet per second of water for the project and the 7-8 m tonnes fuel for the project will be sourced from nearby mines.
