South Eastern Coalfields Limited’s five mines receive Five-Star ratings at the Ministry of Coal’s Star Rating Awards 2026 held in Raipur, Chhattisgarh.

Coal India unit Mahanadi Coalfields may launch its IPO in late November or early December, potentially raising $1 billion at a valuation of up to $10 billion, according to sources.

Choice International has approved a 1:1 bonus issue, its first such corporate action in two years. Under the proposal, shareholders will receive one bonus share for every share held on the record date, which will be announced later. The move will double the number of outstanding shares without changing the company’s market capitalisation, while potentially improving stock liquidity and affordability.

The list of dividend stocks to watch today includes Coal India, Asian Paints and Godrej Consumer Products for dividends, Concord Biotech for a 1:1 bonus issue, and two companies with rights issues. Meanwhile, Infosys, Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders and a few other stocks are already trading ex-dividend today.

Central Mine Planning and Design Institute Ltd. (CMPDI), a subsidiary of Coal India Ltd., has awarded KPI Green Energy the contract to develop a 25 MW (AC)/35 MWp (DC) grid-connected, ground-mounted solar project. It will develop this solar project at the Dugdha II site, Dugdha Washery, BCCL. KPI Green emerged as the winning bidder among 15 companies that participated in the tender. The tender was issued in March 2026, with the contract awarded seven months later. Other companies that participated in the bidding process included Oriana Power Private Limited, Waaree Renewable Technologies Limited, Lumino Industries Limited, FUJIYAMA MECPOWER JV, BVG India Limited, LNB RENEWABLE SUNCITY JV and SURYAM ECOPLANET JV, among others. Scope of Work Under the contract, KPI Green will design, engineer, procure, supply, construct, erect, test, and commission the 25 MW (AC)/35 MWp (DC) grid-connected, ground-mounted solar power plant. The scope also includes comprehensive operation and maintenance (O&M) of the facility for 10 years at the Dugdha II site, Dugdha Washery, BCCL. According to the tender document, the winning bidder must commence work within 30 days of the issuance of the Letter of Acceptance (LoA) and submission of the Performance Security, or within seven days of site handover for the first activity specified in the PERT network chart, whichever is later. The total contract period is 4,017 days, comprising 365 days for project construction, commissioning and performance guarantee (PG) testing, followed by 3,652 days of comprehensive operation and maintenance. Accordingly, the developer will have one year to complete the plant before undertaking the 10-year O&M commitment. Previous Solar Project Awards By CMPDI Under a previous tender, CMPDI has also awarded solar project contracts to other developers in recent years. Last year, Alpex Solar Ltd. (formerly Alpex Solar Pvt. Ltd.) secured a consortium order worth ₹349.99 crore from CMPDI for developing a ground-mounted solar power plant at Nandan Washery, Kanhan Area, under Western Coalfields Ltd. (WCL). The project involves the design, engineering, procurement, construction, fabrication, installation, testing and commissioning of the solar power plant. As a member of the executing consortium, Alpex Solar holds a 70% share of the total contract value, making it the principal participant in the project. The project is classified as a domestic commercial order, with an expected execution period of 540 days from the date of the purchase order. Alpex Solar also clarified that the awarding entity is neither related to its promoters nor to any promoter group companies, and that the contract does not constitute a related-party transaction. Similarly, in 2023, solar solutions provider Oriana Power Ltd. secured a contract from Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL) to develop a 20 MW (AC) ground-mounted solar photovoltaic (PV) power plant in the Dugdha Washery Area of Dhanbad, Jharkhand. The EPC component of the project, valued at ₹138 crore, is scheduled for completion within 12 months. The contract value also includes five years of O&M services and applicable GST charges.
