Coal India Limited was conferred upon the ‘Maharatna’ status by the President of India on 11th April, 2011 (source: Business Standard, April-11, 2011). ‘Maharatna’ status enables board of a Central Public Sector Enterprise (CPSE) to make investments up to INR 5,000 crore in a joint-venture project or a wholly owned subsidiary without the permission of the government (source: Business Standard, April-11, 2011). Coal India Limited holds numero uno status in the world in terms of production of raw coal and also holds the distinction of having the largest reserves of coal in the world. Coal India Limited operates through nine subsidiaries viz. Northern Coalfields Limited (NCL), Eastern Coalfields Limited (ECL), Western Coalfields Limited (WCL), South Eastern Coalfields Limited (SECL), Central Coalfields Limited (CCL), Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL), Central Mine Planning and Design Limited (CMPDIL), Mahanadi Coalfields Limited (MCL) and Coal India Africana Limitada (CIAL).

The IPO was oversubscribed by 14.17 times (source: Economic Times, October-26, 2010). The company received bids for INR 2400 billion (source: www.moneycontrol.com, October-26, 2010).
