The government had formed the IMG in July 2012 to review progress of coal blocks allocated to firms for captive use, while 58 mines were issued show-cause notice for their failure to develop blocks within the stipulated timeline.

The government had earlier accepted the IMG’s recommendations for de-allocation of 13 mines and deduction of bank guarantees of 14 allottees.
