WESTERN COALFIELDS LIMITED

Chairman’s Statement

Friends,

I feel great pleasure in reporting another robust year for Western

Coalfields Limited, at the 38thAnnual General Meeting of the company.

We reported strong top line, that is revenues of Rs. 8703.97 crores

along with sturdy bottom line, that is pretax profit of Rs. 428.87

crores during the financial year 2012-13.

I am happy to share that we are well positioned among the coal

producers in the country on the strength of our strong balance sheet

and sturdy performance year after year, despite the challenges posed

by adverse geo mining conditions, paucity of reserves amenable to mega projects, constraints

in land acquisition/physical possession, delay in forestry/environment clearances, the highest

stripping ratio among all the subsidiaries of CIL, strata control problems due to adverse geo

tectonic parameters and high susceptibility of coal to spontaneous heating/fire in underground

mines.

Vision

The XIIth plan document envisages,GDP growth of 9% per year, with 6.5% annual

growth in energy supply and the demand of 980.50 million tonnes of coal was projected

to meet the 55% of the total primary commercial energy requirement in terminal year

2016-17. At Present 58.3 % of the total installed power generation capacity in the country

is coal based whichcontributed for 75.83% of the total electricity generation during 2012-

13.It is a matter of fact that exponential rise in Coal demand has resulted in negative

coal balance and accordingly coal industry needs to re-orient its production plan for

minimizing the demand supply gap.

Keeping the fact in the mind, WCL has set its vision to emerge as a key player in the primary

energy sector committed to provide energy security to the country by attaining

environmentally and socially sustainable growth through best practices from mine to market.

Performance 2012-13

Financial Year 2012-13 had been a year full of challenges but the undeterred WCL team

with concerted efforts achieved coal production of 42.29million tonnes against last

year’s 43.11million tonnes and the REtarget of 42.00 million tonnes. The performance

was affectedmainly due to the factors that were beyond our control such as delayin

acquisition/physical possession of land, forestry clearances, lease renewal and adverse

geo-mining conditions.

10

ANNUAL REPORT 2012-13

The coal off-take during the current fiscal was 41.546 million tonnes as against last

year’s actual of 41.967 million tonnes and the RE target of 42.00million tonnes. The

shortfall in off-take was mainly due to inadequate lifting of coal by MAHAGENCO

through captive mode (rope/MGR), and road mode against allocations. Non fructification

of cost plus agreement due to the failure of MAHAGENCO to achieve milestones as per

LOA in respect of Bhusawal/Parlipower housesled to less offtake from Ukni and Bellora-

Naigaon cost plus mines and accretion of coal stock.

However, Coal desptaches through rail have registered appreciable growth as WCL has

despatched 21.37 million tonnes coal through rail mode as against the AAP target of

19.05 million tonnes and last year’s actual of 18.28million tonnes registering an

achievement of 112% of target & a growth of 16.9% over last year.The wagon loading

was 15 rakes/ day as against AAP target of 15 rakes/ day with a growth of 16% over last

year.

During 2012-13 WCL achieved growth in coal despatches to core sector industries viz.

2.6% in Power, 11.8% in Cement, 6.5% in Steel, 5.7% in Sponge Iron and 10.1 % in

Captive power plants.

The sales realization during current fiscal had been Rs. 8137.05 crores which is 5.61%

lower than the last year’s realization of Rs. 8620.70 crores. Additional revenue of Rs.

392.11 crores generated through e-auction during 2012-13 was less than the additional

revenue of Rs. 713.55 crores earned during the last year. The drop in realization over

previous year is mainly due to fall in off-take by 0.42 million tonnes and less generation

of additional revenue through e-auction.

WCL produces about 85.08% of Coal through departmental means, whereas the system

capacity utilization in departmental coal production has been 100.08%. The system capacity

utilization during the year with respect to departmental OB removal has been 97.59% and

the overall departmental system capacity utilization has been 98.22% (89.19 million cubic

metres achieved as against the capacity of 90.81 million cubic metres as assessed by

CMPDI as on 1/4/2012).

Your company has achieved ever highest overall productivity of 2.97tonnes per man-shift

during the year 2012-13, which is 115% of the targeted 2.58 tonnes per man shift, thus

registering a growth of 10% over the last year’s actual 2.70 tonnes per man shift.

WCL continued to maintain high utilization of HEMM, which has been more than CIL’s

average during the year 2012-13. WCL ranked 2nd in utilization of Dragline, Shovel, Dumper

& Dozer amongst all subsidiaries of CIL.For further strengthening WCL purchased 94 new

11

WESTERN COALFIELDS LIMITED

equipment including 60T Dumpers and Shovels (Electrical and Hydraulic) against surveyed

off during the fiscal.

Financial Performance

During the year, WCL achieved the highest turnover of Rs.8703.97croreswith a pretax

profit of Rs. 428.87crores, which is of course less than the last year’s pretax profit of

Rs. 440.50crores,despite of increase in employee cost by Rs. 83.00 crores, increase in

POL & Explosive Cost by Rs. 77 croresand increase in Power Cost by Rs. 48 crores.

Net worth of the company has risen from a level of Rs3315.22crores last year to

Rs.3410.91crores on 31-03-2013.

Your Directors have recommended a dividend payment of Rs. 194.60 crores @ 65.50%

on the Paid up Capital of the company that isRs. 297.10 crores, a tangible demonstration

of WCL’s ability to continue creating value.

Creation of Assets

Company has Invested Rs. 264.05 during FY 2012-13 on development of new mines

and infrastructure along with replacement of old assets, entirely from internal resources.

HEMM worth Rs.145.38crores were purchased during the year, whereas the equipment

for underground mining costing Rs.20.51croreswere added in the fleet.

Planning Preparedness

Planning Preparedness: At present, your company is operating 32 Ongoing Projects/

Schemes with a sanctioned capacity of 32.181 MTY and capital of Rs. 1487.167 crores,

out of which, 20 projects have contributed 17.0686 million tonnesof coal production

duringthe year2012-13. For sustaining production levels, company has planned 22

Projects during XII Plan period with a capacity of 24.03 MTY, and initial capital of Rs.

6415.64 crores.

Cost Plus Projects

Total 38 projects have been approved till FY 2012-13 on Cost Plus Basis, that is to yield

requisite 12% IRR, out of which Coal Supply Agreements for 12 projects have already

been signed. 5 projects, namely Sharda UG, Harradol UG, Dhankasa UG,

DhuptalaOC(Sasti UG to OC) and Dinesh OC were offered to MAHAGENCO and

MPPGCL on cost plus basis prior to issuance of MoC guideline dated 07/10/2008. “In

Principle” consent has been received from these State power utilities and Coal Supply

Agreements are under finalization.

12

ANNUAL REPORT 2012-13

As per guidelines from Ministry of Coal, 13 numbers of financially unviable projects

were placed on the website of the company and applications were invited from LoA

holders/ FSA holders/ Linkage holders both from Cost Plus category and notified price

category. Based on the applications CSA on cost plus basis have been executed for

partial capacity for BelloraNaigaon Deep OC and Ukni Deep OC. CSA on cost plus

basis has been executed for complete capacity for Urdhan OC.

Due to enhancement of rates of land compensation by Maharashtra Govt., and

implementation of R&R policy 2012, ongoing projects (13 numbers) are likely to come

under the cost plus ambit, and no investment even for land acquisition can be done without

entering in to cost plus agreement with prospective consumer, resulting in delay in opening

of the ongoing/future projects.

Issues related to cost plus agreements have been flagged with CIL/MOC for suitable

guidelines for expeditious opening of the on-going/future projects.

Exploration and addition in Reserves

Exploratory drilling to the tune of 65,520 meters has been carried out during the fiscal

by CMPDIL in WCL command area. Coal reserves of about 60.56 million metric

tonneshave been proved in Shaktigarh Block of Pathakhera Area.

Technology infusion in Underground Mines

For sustaining the current production levels, production from UG mines needs to be

augmented, as the production from OC mines will be on decline due to the paucity of

suitable reserves.WCL has taken initiatives for adoption of mass production and

continuous mining technology in UG mines for increase in production and productivity

but results may not be expected immediately.

At present, Continuous Minertechnology is under operation at Tandsi UG mines of

WCL and it is planned to introduceatTawa-II Expn. andSaoner-I,both operating mines

in 1st phase and atJamunia u/g and Dhankasa u/g new projects in 2nd phase.

WCL has taken further initiatives for adoption of new technology for mass production in

underground mines through global tender for development, construction and operation

on turn-key basis (MDO concept) of two underground blocks namely Murpar and

Bordawith capacity of 2.0million tonnes per year each, in 1stphase,and two more

blocksnamely Nand with 1.0 million tonnes per year capacity and Shaktigarh with

2.0million tonnes per year capacity have been identified for development in 2ndphase.

13

WESTERN COALFIELDS LIMITED

In order to eliminate long arduous travel, fatigue and to improve the efficiency of workmen

in UG mines, Man Riding Systems have been installed in five UG mines. Further such

systems are under installation in three UG mines and one more is under procurement.

Your company has played a leading role in mechanizing the drilling for face as well as

roof support,by deploying 31 departmental Universal Drilling Machines (UDMs), which

has resulted in significant improvement in the blasting efficiency and in green zone

support with added safety.

Energy Efficiency initiatives

Accepting the fact that there is scope to save energy by rationalization of operations,

WCL has undertaken various initiatives, which have resulted in arresting the energy

consumption levels with just 0.20% increase, despite 13.2% increase in average

rainfall over previous year requiring additional pumping to dewater our inundated

mines during heavy and incessant rains.

Material Management

During the year 2012-13, all the procurement cases of material were finalized through

e-tendering mode, total 137 nos. of e-tenders were floated with estimated amount of

Rs.583 crores. WCL has maintained its position at the top amongst CILsubsidiaries by

keeping the lowest inventory during the fiscal, that is inventory of 0.89 month’s

consumption against 1.00 month during 2011-12. Your company has realized Rs. 8.69

crores by means of scrap disposal during the year 2012-13.

Environment Management

Coal mining is environmentally sensitive activity and mitigation of its adverse impacts is

imperative for sustainable development.Your company is aware of its responsibility and

has taken initiatives for environmental protection and mitigation measures in all the

operating mines.

WCL is committed to restore the degraded land through reclamation, afforestation and

green beltdevelopment. Till date, 180.49 Lakh trees have been planted covering an

area of 6533.23 Ha.in its command area in the states of Maharashtra & Madhya

Pradesh. During 2012-13, a total of 1.60 Lakh saplings were planted in the mining and

adjoining areas through expert forest agencies namely Forest Development Corporation

of Maharashtra (FDCM) and Madhya Pradesh Rajya Van VikasNigam(MPRVVN).

14

ANNUAL REPORT 2012-13

The progress of afforestation in the 10 major Open cast Projects of WCL is monitored

regularly through satellite imagery which indicates that there is an increase in

afforestation/plantation area.The Satellite data substantiates that green cover due to

plantation has increased by 10.26 Sq. Km. in last five years that is from 2008 to 2012.

In the recent past, statutory stipulations such as restrictions imposed on expansion of

existing projects in Maharashtra due to River Regulatory zone Policy 2009 even after

obtaining EC from MoEF, extension of moratorium on grant of EC under CEPI in

Chandrapur industrial cluster, and mandatory Stage-I forest clearance to get EC, etc.

are some of the nagging problems that are being faced by WCL. I am sure that most of

these issues will be resolved in due course of time as we have taken up these issues

with the concerned State Ministry and at Chief Secretary level.

Acquisition of Land

Your company is facing hardships due to undue delay in acquisition/physical possession

of land, lease renewal and forestry clearances. The issues have been flagged in the

meetings held with Chief Secretary, Govt. of Maharashtra, Minister of forest Govt. of

Madhya Pradesh, and other concerned authorities. WCL could acquire 2025.823 Ha

land under LA Act, CBA Act, FC Act and Direct Purchase and took physical possession

of 201.21 Ha land with constant persuasions.

During the fiscal, total 61 Project affected families, have been resettled by providing

resettlement grant as opted by land oustees, within the provisions of R&R Policy of CIL.

Employment of 753 land oustees and monetary compensation to 46 in lieu of employment

during FY 2012-13 has been approved.

Corporate Social Responsibility

With a view to bring meaningful change in the lives of our most important stake holders that

is, populace residing in our command area in particular and the society at large, WCL has

undertaken massive CSR initiatives during the year 2012-13 and completed 205 CSR

activities, with an expenditure of Rs. 20.96crores as compared to Rs. 7.85 crores incurred

during last year. The major activities during the year includes construction/repair of 43.56

Km length road, construction of 35 school class rooms, construction/repair of 30 community

centers to enrich the village life, provision of 43 borewells/handpumps to meet the drinking

water needs of villagers,organization of16 no. of coaching camps to promote sports,

organization of 221 Medical camps, with 28,647 beneficiaries, and 906 camps by Mobile

Medical Vans with 68,529 beneficiaries in nearby villages.

Safety is always our top priority and we are continuously thriving for achieving the superior

standards through adoption of best practices. Thrust is being givenfor enhancement in

safety awareness at the grass root level through participative management forums likesafety

committee meetings, and special safety awareness drives,programmed and co-ordinated

by internal safety organization (ISO) on various subjects like green roof support, safe

practices in haulage, belt conveyors, face equipment, ventilation, dust suppression, explosives

and blasting. Tripartite safety committee meetings with active participation of DGMS officials

are also being held to review the status. During the calendar year 2012, there had been

no change in fatalities that is 10 and reduction of serious injuries from 37 to 29 vis-a-vis

2011.Scientific studies have been carriedout onstability of OB dumps, spontaneous heating

etc. by reputed scientific/educational institutions for enhancing the safety in operations.

Further, we have continued our focus on training and retraining of the workforce.

3.3 Mechanised Underground Coal

Production:

The Mechanised Coal Production fromUnderground mines during the year2012-13 was 7.987 million tonneswhich is 0.071 million tonnes less thanlast year’s actual of 8.058 milliontonnes. Coal production by Conti-nuous Miner (CM) Technology atTandsi and Kumberkhani Mines was0.1053 million tonnes which is 0.0442million tonnes less than last year actualof 0.1496 million tonnes. Adverse Geo-Mining conditions at Tandsi UG &expiry of contract for CM operation atKumberkhani UG in July 2012 affectedthe production of Continuous Miner.

3.4 Coal Stock:

Coal Stock at the end of fiscal 2012-13 increased by 0.741 million tonnesand stood at 5.834 million tonnes ascompared to last year’s 5.093 million

tonnes. Accreditation in Coal Stock has

been mainly due to following reasons:

1) The actual off take was less than MOU

target mainly due to inadequate lifting

of coal by MAHAGENCO through

captive modes (Rope/MGR) and Road

mode.

2) Evacuation of coal from Ukni & Bellora

Naigaon cost plus mines was affected

to the tune of 1.14 MT as cost plus

agreement with Mahagenco did not

fructify due to non achievement of

milestone in respect of Bhusawal/Parli

TPS

3) The Off take through e-auction route

was restricted upto 10% of planned

production till November12 which has

resulted in less off take of 1.04MT than

the last year’s off take through e-

auction route.

16.3 PLANNING PREPAREDNESS

16.3.1 X Plan Projects

24 mining projects were envisaged in X

Plan, mainly to sustain present level of

production from existing and completed

group of mines.

The total capacity & production

contribution of these X Plan projects is

given below :

STATUS OF X PLAN PROJECTS

* Waghoda UG (0.39 Mty) and Junad

Extn. OC (0.60 Mty) have been shifted

to XI Plan, as CSA on cost plus basis

was finalized on18.04.2007

** Saoner UG Mine No. III (with Conti-

nuous Miner Technology), has been

dropped, due to insufficient balance

reserve for deployment of Continuous

Miner.

Out of 21 X Plan projects, 5 projects have

been completed. 15 projects (10 ongoing

and 5 completed) are contributing

production. One Project viz Junakunada

OC has been commi-ssioned in 2011-

12 and it has contributed to coal

production in 2012-13. Remaining 6

projects could not be started because

physical possession of land could not be

obtained due to expectations of very high

land compensation by land losers, which

was beyond norms. Capital requirement

in these projects has increased due to

enhancement of rate of land

compensation by Maharashtra

Government and implementation of R&R

Policy, 2012. The PRs of these projects

are being updated. None of these 6

projects are likely to remain viable at

notified price.

16.3.2 XI Plan Projects

Out of 33 XI Plan projects, 4 projects

were shifted to XII Plan. Presently, there

are 29 Projects of XI Plan with a

sanctioned capacity of 38.75 MTY and

capital of Rs. 5765.77 crore identified

to sustain the present level of production

of the Company.

STATUS OF XI PLAN PROJECTS

16.3.3 XII PLAN PROJECTS

22 projects, including 4 projects shifted

from XI Plan, with an anticipated

capacity of 24.03 MTPA and estimated

capital expenditure of Rs. 6415.64 crore

have been planned for the XII Plan

period for sustaining production levels.

17.1.3Out of 6 approved ongoing projects of

XI Plan, 3projects namely Scheme for

Extension of Ghugus OC, Scheme for

Extension of Gauri- I and Gauri -II

(Merger) OC & Junad Extension OC are

contributing production. The production

from these mines during 2012-13 is

3.62 MTe.

17.2 Coal Supply Agreement (CSA) on

negotiated price to yield requisite

IRR % for approval of Project

Total 38 Projects have been approved

till 2012-13 on cost plus basis, out of

which Coal Supply Agreements for 12

projects have already been signed.

5 projects, namely, Sharda UG,

Harradol UG, Dhankasa UG, Dhoptala

(Sasti UG to OC) and Dinesh OC, have

been offered to MAHAGENCO and

MPPGCL on cost plus basis prior to

issuance of MoC guideline dated 07/10/

2008. “In Principle” consent has been

received from these State Power

Utilities & Coal supply agreements are

under finalisation.

17.3 In order to open new mines, which are

financially non-viable at Notified Price,

the following alternatives are being

explored :-

a) Efforts are being made to plan mines

by total/partial hiring of equipment at

enhanced capacity ensuring

minimum 12 % IRR at 85 % capacity

utilisation as per Govt. of India

guidelines.

b) To enter into Coal Supply Agreement

with the consumers who are

agreeable to pay the price yielding

12 % IRR at 85 % capacity.

c) As per MOC guidelines details of

thirteen financially non-viable projects

were placed on the Website of WCL

and applications were invited from

LOA holders /FSA holders/ Linkage

holders both from Cost Plus

Category & Notified Price Category.

Based on the applications, allocation

of Coal from 3 mines namely Urdhan

OC, Bellora Naigaon OC and Ukni

Deep OC, has been approved for

M/s MAHAGENCO and M/S Wardha

Proposal for allocation for six projects

was placed before SLC-LT in its

meeting held on 07/01/2013 for

approval of shifting of linkage from

notified price to cost plus price.

Minutes of the meeting awaited. The

details are as below:

*- Applications received for partialcapacity.

Allocation could not be done for twoprojects viz. Bhakra and Extensionof Nandan II in Dhau North Block dueto non-receipt of applications underCoking Coal Linkage. Allocation couldnot be done for Motaghat OC as itwas decided to revise this PR forcarving out reserves for maintainingcontinuity of production of DurgapurOCM. This was required to be doneas OB removal at Durgapur ExtensionDeep OC had to be discontinued dueto non-diversion of forest land.Application received for Maori UG(CCT) was withdrawn by customer.

Further it has been observed that thepresent procedure for allocation of costplus projects is long and cumbersome.A proposal depicting difficulties beingfaced in implementation of cost plus

projects was placed before WCL Boardin its 243rd meeting held on 05/12/2012.After deliberation it was directed to referthe issue to CIL/MoC for decision/deliberation on alternatives suggestedbelow :

1. Price of WCL as a whole by poolingcost plus projects and notifiedprojects.

2. Pooling the difference betweendesired selling price of cost plusprojects of WCL with the notified priceon the whole of CIL for each GCV band.

In case one or both options are agreedto, all projects of WCL may come out ofthe cost plus ambit thereby facilitatingexpeditious approval and execution ofongoing/future projects.

The matter has been referred to CIL.

final approval :

18.5 Commissioning of Projects

During the year Scheme for Gauri Deep

OC has been commissioned and the

project has started to contribute coal

production also.

18.6 Brief Status of Ongoing Projects

At present there are 32 ongoing projects

(20 projects having a sanctioned capital

of more than Rs.20 Crore & 12 projects/

schemes having a sanctioned capital of

less than Rs.20 Crore). The sanctioned

capacity of these projects is 32.181

Million Tonne per Annum and

sanctioned capital of Rs.1487.167 crore.

Out of 32 Projects, 20 are contributing

to coal production and rest are under

implementation. Contribution of 20

projects in coal production for 2012-13

was 17.0686 Mte with an increment of

0.3563 Mte over last year. Due to

enhancement of land rates by

Maharashtra Govt. and implementation

of R&R Policy, 2012 most of the

opencast projects approved on notified

price are not likely to remain viable at

such price. For projects approved on

cost plus basis, cost plus price is also

likely to undergo upward revision due

to the factors mentioned above.

18.7 Acquisition of land

18.7.1The Coal Bearing Areas (Acquisition &

Development) Act, 1957 is the main

stay of Central Government for

vi)State Government officials show their

inability for providing Government land

for resettlement of Project Affected

Families. Identification of land for

resettlement in consultation with PAFs

causes delay in their resettlement.

To overcome the above constraints

New R&R Policy of CIL – 2012 has

been approved by CIL Board in its

279th Meeting held on 12th & 13th

March, 2012, which is implemented

in WCL.

Meeting held with Chief Secretary,

Government of Maharashtra on 2nd

November, 2012, 12th December,

2012 and 19th December, 2012 for

expediting the proposals of land

acquisition under LA Act and

expeditious processing of forestry

clearance proposals. The progress

was reviewed in subsequent

meetings held on 4th February, 2013

and 4th March, 2013. Besides above

several meetings are also held with

Divisional Commissioner, Nagpur,

APCCF/ Nodal Officer and other

Officials at Nagpur for expediting the

proposals of LA Act and forestry

clearance proposals.

Meeting was held with Minister of

Forest, Government of Madhya

Pradesh on 8th August, 2012 and with

Addl. PCCF (LM), Bhopal on 28th April,

2012, 29th August, 2012 and 14th

March, 2013 for expediting the

forestry clearance proposals in

Madhya Pradesh. Meeting was also

held with APCCF (C), MoEF,

Regional Office, Bhopal on 25th May,

2012 and meeting with DG (Forests),

MoEF, New Delhi on 11 th/12 th

January, 2013 for expediting forestry

clearance proposals, which are under

process at MoEF.

18.7.6 Constraints in acquisition of land

i) There is undue delay in acquisition of

land applied for acquisition under LA

Act, 1894 by State Government

Authorities such as in Gondegaon-

Ghatrohana Amalgamated OC,

Singori OC, Kamptee UG to OC and

Inder UG to OC Projects of Nagpur

Area.

ii) For the land notified U/s. 9(1) of CBA

Act, 1957 considerable time elapsed

in executing agreement with each

land owners U/s. 14(1) of CBA Act,

which is required for preparation of

compensation bill at the rate declared

by Government of Maharashtra for

compensation of land.

iii) Provision of fund in the project

reports under the head “Land” is not

sufficient for payment of

compensation of land as per the rate

declared by Government of

Maharashtra. Therefore project

reports are being revised/cost

updated.

iv)Due to the enhanced rate of land,

many of the ongoing projects

approved on notified price may

become unviable at notified price and

may fall in cost plus category. The

compensation of land in such projects

cannot be paid under present

guidelines until cost plus agreement

is executed with consumers,

resulting in delay in physical

possession of land.

v) There is inordinate delay in

processing the forestry clearance

proposals at different levels of State

Forest Department causing delay in

obtaining clearance for diversion of

forest land from MoEF.

41

WESTERN COALFIELDS LIMITED

could not fructify due to non- achievement

of milestone in respect of Bhusawal/Parli

TPS.

iii) The offtake through e-auction route

was restricted upto 10% of the planned

production till November, 2012 which has

resulted in less offtake of 1.04 MT than

the last year’s offtake through e- auction

route.

19.1 Raw Coal Offtake during the Fiscal 2012-

13 was 41.546 Mill Te against the TGT

of 45.25 Mill Te i.e achievement of 92

% of Target. Offtake during the fiscal

2011- 12 was 41.967 Million tonne thus

growth during 2012-13 as against

2011-12 was (-)1%. The reasons for

short fall are :

i) The offtake of WCL has been less

than MOU target mainly because of

inadequate lifting of coal by

MAHAGENCO through captive

modes (Rope/MGR) and Road modes

to the tune of 2.45 MT against

allocations.

Inaccordance with Company’s policy as set out in Para 6 ofAccounting Policies (Note 33), no adjustment is made inthe books of accounts in case the difference between booksstock of coal and volumetrically measured physical stock ofcoal is within (+/-) 5%, due to approximate nature of themethod of measurement.

said Cess is not payable. However a Special Leave Petition is pending in Supreme

Court against it.

d) As per interim orders dated 20.06.2005 and 29.06.2005 of Nagpur Bench of Hon’bleBombay High Court, WCL has made Fixed Deposit in Nationalised Banks for the amountof difference between weighted average of e-auction price and notified price for coalsupplied to the petitioners during the period 01.07.2005 to 31.12.2005.

ANNUAL REPORT 2012-13

As per the Supreme Court order dated 9th May, 2008, refund claims of the customersare to be verified by a Committee at WCL HQ level and the money is to be refunded tothe claimants directly. Accordingly an amount of ̀ 22.97 crores together with interest of` 4.11 crores has been refunded to the claimants. The total refunds and interest paid till31.3.2013 (including the above refund and interest) are ̀ 39.29 crores and ̀ 7.60 croresrespectively.

Considering the refunds made to the customers and the amount paid to CIL, there is noFixed Deposit on this account as on 31st March 2013

e) The Company had approached MSRDC to construct a bridge over Wardha River near

Nakoda in Wani Area to reduce the lead for coal transportation between the mines of

Wani Area and Railway Siding at Wani. An agreement was entered into with MSRDC

on 23.12.1997 for construction of the bridge and a loan of ̀ 2.35 Crores was agreed to

be given by WCL to MSRDC, against which a loan of `1.13 Crores, carrying a simple

interest @ 9% p.a. was given to MSRDC in 1997-98. The bridge is currently being used

to transport coal across Wardha River. The loan is to be repaid by MSRDC after repayment

of its other loans. However, till date no amount is repaid by MSRDC. The remaining

amount of loan of `1.22 Crores has not been released as WCL wants to establish a

time bound schedule for repayment of the loan and interest thereon. Negotiations have

been initiated with MSRDC for this purpose.

Since the principal amount of advance is doubtful, necessary provision for ̀ 2.14 Crores(including interest accounted for as income up to 31.3.2010 of `1.01Crores) exists ason 31.03.2013. In view of this, since the year 2010-11, the interest amounting to ̀ 0.10Crores per year on this advance has not been recognised as income and also no

further provision was necessary during the year.

f) Report of the Tripartite Committee, comprising of Subsidiary/Mine Management,

CMPDIL and Explosive Manufacturers, set up to finalise the benchmark powder factor

of each mine for the period 2005-06 and April’06 to July’06, is still awaited. It has beendecided by CIL that Subsidiary Management shall review the impact of considering thepowder factor of 2003-04 and 2004-05, whichever is higher vis-à-vis actual achievedduring 2005-06 and submit the Company’s view through CMD to CIL. This review isyet to be finalized. As such no recovery has been made from bills for supply of explosivesduring that period.

i) In case of land in Chandrapur/Ballarpur/Wani/Nagpur Areas , a common judgementwas pronounced on 05.01.2009 by Hon’ble Bombay High Court in Non-Agriculturalassessment cases. Accordingly, there is a contingent demand of land revenue, ZP/GPTaxes and additional taxes for the period from 1980 to 2009 to the tune of ` 62.04 crores.However, the Company has filed a Leave Petition before the Divisional Bench of BombayHigh Court, on behalf of the Areas on the ground that such taxes are not payable onlands acquired under Coal Bearing Area Act.

k) The Rate Contracts (RC) for supply of explosives by different suppliers expired on 28th

February, 2006 and pending renewal of the RCs the suppliers were asked to continue

the supplies at the same rates as prevalent in the expired RC, subject to the condition

that such extended period supplies would be governed by the rates as fixed in the new

RC. This continued upto 28th July, 2006.

The new RC was finalised and came into effect from 29th July, 2006 with a reduced

price of the explosives. As a result, the supplies during the extended period of the

earlier RC was found to be supplied at a higher price than actually applicable. Hence

recovery of excess amount paid was made from the suppliers.

Against the above recoveries, some of the suppliers, (six parties) filed a Civil Suit before

Hon’ble Calcutta High Court. The Hon’ble High Court of Calcutta granted stay in

December 2006 for recovery and directed CIL to stop such recovery of excess

payments. Accordingly CIL directed WCL to refund the amount deducted from the six

suppliers. The Hon’ble High Court of Calcutta asked these suppliers to deposit

the disputed amount in question in an account with the Joint Receiver appointed by the

Hon’ble High Court. As the suppliers having failed to do so, the Hon’ble Calcutta High

Court in July 2008 vacated the stay of recovery of excess payment made to such suppliers.

Hence, CIL directed WCL to restart the recovery of such amount from the running bills

of the suppliers as per directives of Court, an amount of ̀ 2.58 crores is recovered and

kept in the books under a separate account (Liability Code 480199) since 2008-09,

pending final disposal of the case by the Court.

20 years as advised by CIL vide letter no.CIL/C-3(A)/31073/1128, dated 21.03.2013.
