Bhubaneswar: Mahanadi Coalfields Limited (MCL), the leading coal producer, has dispatched over 5.47 lakh tonne coal to consumers on Sunday breaking its own record of 5.45 lakh tonne within a fortnight.
The company dispatched highest ever 103 rakes of coal with 65 rakes coming from Talcher coalfields while 38 rakes were supplied from Ib Valley Coalfields.
Chairman-cum-Managing Director P K Sinha congratulated the officers and workers of MCL for their consistent and coordinated approach to maximise coal supply which has resulted in an average dispatch of 5.17 lakh tonne per day for October.
Asserting that MCL has sufficient coal stock, Sinha said in October, the coal production, despatch and overburden (OB) removal have registered a growth of 26.5 per cent, 34.3 per cent and 71.7 per cent respectively against the same period during the last financial year.
Recording an impressive double-digit growth during the current fiscal, MCL has produced 78.5 million tonne coal, registering a growth of 12.16 per cent, while dispatched 89.65 million tonne dry fuel to the consumer, as against 74.33 million tonne supplied during the same period last year.
Overburden (OB) removal at MCL has also registered a significant growth of 22.2 per cent at 101.02 million cubic meters during the current fiscal. This would ensure sufficient availability of exposed resources to extract coal and meet the market demands.
