II. Litigation involving our Subsidiaries
A. Kartikay Coal Washeries Private Limited (“KCWPL”)
Outstanding litigation and proceedings initiated by KCWPL
Writ Petition
KCWPL v. Union of India, State of Chhattisgarh, MCCPL and Others
Writ Petition No. 4000 of 2007 before the Chhattisgarh High Court
KCWPL has filed writ petition before the Chhattisgarh High Court on July 6, 2007 with respect to its
application for allotment of 13.7 acres of land in District Korba, Chhattisgarh. KCWPL has contended that the
application was initially processed and later stalled on account of an allotment of 37.91 acres of land by the
State Government of Chhattisgarh to MCCPL and that the allotment of these 37.91 acres of land, by way of a
lease deed, was undertaken without any public notice and public auction thereby depriving KCWPL of its right
to participate in the allotment. KCWPL inter-alia has prayed for cancellation of the aforesaid lease deed and
that appropriate directions be issued to the State Government of Chhattisgarh for allotment of the aforesaid
13.7 acres of land to KCWPL. This writ petition is currently pending.
Civil
MCCPL v. SECL and another
Writ Petition no. 3094 of 2007 before the Chhattisgarh High Court
MCCPL had filed a writ petition before the Chhattisgarh High Court to direct South Eastern Coal Fields
Limited (“SECL”) to deliver orders of up to 10 million metric tonnes of raw coal so that the same may be
washed by MCCPL. SECL has filed a reply to the petition explaining its reluctance in granting the delivery
orders. According to SECL, there remains a question as to the title and allotment of MCCPL’s washery land
and the matter is in dispute in Civil Suit No. 90-A/2004 before the Civil Judge, Class II, District Korba. SECL
has maintained that this petition is infructuous. Pending the disposal of this writ petition an application was
moved by SECL before the Chhattisgarh High Court that they may be permitted to lease the land in favour of
MCCPL.
KCWPL had, on June 12, 2007, filed an impleadment application to this writ petition on the grounds that it
was also impleaded in Civil Suit No. 90-A/2004, and is interested in this piece of land as State Government of
Chhattisgarh had earlier initiated process to allot this land to them and is also a subject matter of consideration
of this writ petition. SECL has responded to the application as not maintainable on the grounds that since this
writ petition itself is not maintainable, the impleadment to this writ petition is also not maintainable. MCCPL
has also filed its reply and requested the Chhattisgarh High Court not to admit the impleadment application as
the affect on KCWPL is indirect. The matter and the impleadment application filed therein is currently pending
before the Chhattisgarh High Court.
