Mr NC Jha chairman of CIL said that "We have already become number one public sector company and now we are working on becoming number one firm in the country, profit and turnover wise as well. It is just a matter of some years.”
Attributing the recognition of the Maharatna firm as the number one company on the bourses to its 0.382 million employees, Mr Jha said that "It has happened due to extensive efforts of all Coal Indians, who have been engaged in coal mining day and night."
