The coal ministry has raised objections to Coal India Limited's (CIL's) plan for it would impact availability of coal to linked power sector consumers. CIL plan to double the sale of coal on the e-auction route this fiscal thus seems to have hit a roadblock according to sources. In its business plan for 2006-07, CIL has proposed to almost double the sale of coal through e-auction from the present 20 million tonnes (mt) to 36 mt. This would mean that out of incremental production of 20 mt targeted by CIL for current fiscal, 16 mt would go for e-auction.
