Adani Enterprises (AEL) has bagged a new coal mining agreement (CMA) from Maharashtra State Power Generation Company (MAHAGENCO) for the Gare Palma Sector II coal mine in India.

As per the agreement, AEL and its wholly-owned subsidiary company Gare Palma II Collieries (GPIICPL) will develop and operate the Gare Palma Sector II coal mine.

The Gare Palma Sector II coal mine was allocated to MAHAGENCO in 2015 by the India’s Ministry of Coal.

The coal block was allotted for development, operation, and captive consumption of coal, which will be used by thermal power plants located at Koradi, Chandrapur, and Parli in the Indian state of Maharashtra.

In 2016, MAHAGENCO launched a tender seeking mine developer and operator (MDO) for the Gare Palma II coal mine.

Adani Enterprises was selected as the L-1 bidder following reverse auction.
