Coal India approves ₹3160 Crore guarantee for subsidiary CRAUL's solar plant
Coal India's Board approved a corporate guarantee of up to ₹3160 crore for its subsidiary CRAUL. This funding is for CRAUL's 875 MW Solar PV Plant CAPEX. CRAUL is a joint venture between CIL (74%) and RRVUNL (26%). The guarantee entails potential liability for CIL up to ₹3160 crore.
The guarantee of ₹3160 crore represents a significant financial commitment and potential contingent liability for Coal India Limited. While it supports a subsidiary's project, the scale of the guarantee warrants a medium impact assessment.
The approval of a corporate guarantee is a standard financial arrangement for a subsidiary's project funding and does not inherently represent a positive or negative development on its own. The potential liability is noted, but it is contingent on default.
Coal India Limited (CIL) has announced that its Board has approved giving a corporate guarantee to its subsidiary, CIL Rajasthan Akshay Urja Limited (CRAUL). This guarantee is for an amount of up to ₹3160 crore and is intended to fund the capital expenditure (CAPEX) for CRAUL's 875 MW Solar PV Plant.
CRAUL is a joint venture company between CIL, holding a 74% equity stake, and Rajasthan Rajya Vidyut Utpadan Nigam Limited (RRVUNL), a Rajasthan State Government company, which holds the remaining 26%. The transaction is considered to be at arm's length due to CIL's majority holding.
The guarantee represents a potential liability for CIL, limited to ₹3160 crore, in the event that CRAUL defaults on its debt obligations. The announcement was made on March 23, 2026.
