This highest certification of its own kind has not only added another feather in the crown of CCL but also set a benchmark for other organisations to follow, particularly in Jharkhand. 

Jharkhand under the leadership of its CM, Shri Raghubar Das has made it's mark across country and among the foreign investors for its pro industry policies and good governance. The motivatiing guidance of our honorable Rail & Coal Minister Shri Piyush Goyal has helped us to lay a strong foundation, which has pushed CCL to break one record after another, in last 4 years. Our commitment to "Power for All" will certainly get a boost with this certification.

It needs to be noted that CCL, under the able leadership of CMD Shri Gopal Singh, with production of 41.65 MT coal, has registered 12% in coal production in the first three quarters of current in comparison to the corresponding period in last FY and simultaneously registered an increase of 8% in coal dispatch. In the current fiscal (2018-19), till January 31, 2019, the company has produced 48.5 Million Tonnes (MT) coal, which is 5.6 MT (13%) more than the corresponding period of the previous financial year.

In the recent years, CCL management led by CMD CCL Shri Singh has put special emphasis on infrastructure, commencement of ambitious Greenfield projects which have been stuck for years and expansion of existing ones, whose positive outcome have started to flow now. Its live example can be seen in whopping growth in coal production in the first month of 2019 itself. The very foundation of this sustained increased growth, have been led by CCL, under the guidance of Hon'ble Union Railway, Finance and Coal Minister, Shri Piyush Goyal, with unrelenting support of Hon'ble Chief Minister, Jharkhand Shri Raghubar Das and in the leadership of CMD, CCL. The benefit of this have reached thermal power plants in form of quality and abundant coal supply and reaped by common citizens with unabated power supply at reduced rates. In the last five years, CCL has initiated various projects to develop infrastructures, build railway sidings for coal dispatch, acquired land for Greenfield projects and other efforts which has not only benefited the citizens at large but also given the impetus to the country’s resurgent economy. This campaign to provide electricity to the each and every household by the government of India i.e. "Power for All", which was conceptualized by our Hon’ble Prime Minister, has a determined support and herculean effort from CCL to make it a ground reality and the company will continue to play its pivotal role through bolstered coal production and dispatch.

The International Standardization Organization (ISO) awards quality standard certification after thorough inquiry of any company's product, process both for various features such as quality, customer satisfaction, purity and management system etc.
