Coal India's process for signing fuel supply pacts becomes digital

Coal India Ltd has introduced online signing of fuel supply agreements for power and non-regulated sectors. This move replaces the physical document submission with an easier digital process. The shift aims to simplify operations and improve efficiency for clients. Nearly 700 FSAs for non-regulated sectors and 262 FSAs for the power sector have already been signed digitally.

Coal India Ltd (CIL) on Tuesday said that it has started the online process of signing fuel supply pacts with its various clients including those in the power sector to ensure ease of business . With this move, CIL has discontinued with the earlier practice of physical submission of official papers, while bank guarantees and other required documents can be submitted through digital mode.

"Coal India Ltd, in a first ever, introduced online signing of fuel supply agreements (FSA) for power as well as non-regulated sector customers participating under linkage based auctions," the company said in a statement.

To ensure ease of business, CIL said, it has also cut down the number of documents that were required to be submitted.

"The online signing of FSAs for linkage auctions ...evades the cumbersome process of physical submission of voluminous documents.

It ushers in greater customer ease as they can conduct the entire process from their place of work without having to visit the coal companies," a senior executive of the company said.

Previously, in case of any discrepancy in documents, customers had to visit the company to get them rectified.

Now, this can be done online.
