The investment portion of CIL would total Rs 206 billion, with the majority of that amount going toward land acquisition, rehabilitation, and resettlement issues. occasionally on railroad sidings as well.

The engagement duration is for 25 years.

According to the authorised mining plan, MDOs' job would be to excavate, extract, and deliver coal to CIL's coal firms. CIL is the sole owner of the mines and coal. CIL would handle coal sales. MDOs would contribute technology, the majority of the capital expenditures, economic feasibility, and operational efficiency for higher production.
