Central Mine Planning & Design Institute IPO Details

Central Mine Planning & Design Institute Limited (CMPDI) was incorporated in 1974 as a strategic division of the then Coal Mines Authority Limited (CMAL), following the nationalization of India’s coal industry. It later became a fully owned subsidiary of Coal India Limited (CIL)—the world's largest coal producer—after CMAL was merged into CIL in 1975. Headquartered in Ranchi, CMPDI is a Schedule-B Public Sector Undertaking (PSU) and has held Mini Ratna (Category I) status since June 2019. The company is ISO 9001, ISO 27001, and ISO 37001 certified, reflecting its commitment to quality, information security, and anti-bribery practices.

CMPDI provides end-to-end consultancy and support services in mineral exploration, mine planning, infrastructure design, environmental management, and system implementation. While it primarily serves the coal and mineral sectors, its technical expertise is increasingly sought in allied industries both in India and abroad. The company also plays a key policy and coordination role on behalf of the Ministry of Coal, acting as a nodal agency for R&D and strategic initiatives. With seven Regional Institutes across India and a network of exploration camps and field units, CMPDI is positioned as both a commercial and national strategic asset in India’s energy and resource planning ecosystem.
