Coal India, one of India's biggest companies by revenue, has monopoly rights over exploitation of coal reserves. Accounting for more than 80% of domestic production, the company has been facing heavy criticism for not being able to meet demand, forcing those who need the fuel to seek recourse to costly imports.
