Coal India set to unlock value through partial divestment of BCCL

Coal India is expected to raise significant proceeds by divesting a 10 % stake in Bharat Coking Coal through the IPO route. The divestment aligns with the government’s broader asset monetisation and disinvestment agenda. Proceeds are likely to strengthen Coal India’s balance sheet while offering public investors access to a specialised coking coal producer. Market watchers view the move as a strategic step rather than a shift in operational control.
