Coal Mines (Nationalisation) Act, 1973 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1973

.....the above two Acts. Some of the important amendments which the Ordinance proposed were as follows:- (a) the definition of "mine'' inthe Coking Coal Actandthe Coal Mines Actincluded all coal and coke belonging to the owner of the mine whether in stock or in transit and all coal under production in a mine on a day immediately prior to the date on which the coal mines were nationalised. Accordingly, the amounts specified in the Schedules to the two Acts included the value of the coke and coal in stock lying at the mines at the time of nationalisation. The Supreme Court, however, in a recent case, while agreeing with the contention that the coke and coal stocks lying at the mine vested in the Government as a result of nationalisation, took the view that the value of coke and coal stocks had to be taken into account for balancing the position of accounts as on the date immediately preceding the date of nationaliiation. This would have involved double payment of the amount in as much as the value of the coke and coal stocks had already been included in the amounts mentioned in the Schedules to the Acts against each coal mine. In order to make the intention clear sections 10and22 of.....
