Coal India on Saturday said its wholly-owned subsidiary Central Coalfields Limited (CCL), which had approved a Rs 1,001.88 crore buyback proposal, has decided "not to proceed" with the plan.
"..the Board of Directors of CCL at its meeting held on March 10, 2017 has, after reviewing the limited reviewed unaudited financials of the company ended December 31, 2016 based on the Revised valuation Report submitted by the merchant banker, decided not to proceed with the proposed buyback," the miner said in a regulatory filing.
