The Ministry of Coal’s Nominated Authority has issued vesting orders for three coal blocks—Rajgamar Dipside (Deavnara), Tangardihi North, and Mahuagarhi—under commercial coal block auctions on October 23, 2025. The Coal Mine Development and Production Agreements (CMDPAs) for these blocks were signed on August 21, 2025.

Of the three, two are partially explored and one fully explored, with a combined peak rated capacity (PRC) of around 1.00 MTPA and total geological reserves of about 1,484.41 million tonnes. These mines are projected to generate annual revenue of approximately Rs 189.77 crore, attract capital investment of Rs 150 crore, and create around 1,352 direct and indirect jobs.

With this, vesting or allocation orders have now been issued for 130 coal blocks under commercial auctions, with a cumulative PRC of about 267.24 MTPA—expected to generate annual revenue of Rs 37,700 crore and provide employment to nearly 3.61 lakh people.
