(c): Not applicable in view of the reply given in part (a) above.
(d) & (e): The procurement of equipment depends on the need for new equipments as per the project taken up and the replacement cycle of the existing
equipments in different mines/projects. The trend can be seen from the tables above that the equipment purchased in CIL shows a mixed trend.
(f) & (G): Equipment are procured by CIL either as per provision of the Project Report or against surveyed off equipment as replacement.
Spares are also procured by CIL as per the projected requirement. The percentage availability and utilization of the major Heavy Earth

The utilization of the equipment is getting adversely affected for various reasons like non-availability of land due to forest or inhabitation,
Law & order problem, difficult geo-mining conditions, fire in working coal seams, excessive rainfall, MCC bandhs (in CCL) etc. However, following
steps have been taken for improvement of availability and utilization of equipment:
# Effective implementation of Condition Based Monitoring of HEMM.
# Improvement of Reliability of HEMM by planned maintenance & repair.
# Introduction of MARC (Maintenance and Repair Contract) with Original Equipment Manufacturer. All HEMM of high capacity are covered under MARC.
# Streamlining policy for procurement of spare parts for ensuring timely availability of spares to reduce downtime of equipment. Entering
into Depot Agreement with various OEMs.
# Skill up-gradation of technical crew by imparting training on Simulators. Tenders floated for procurement of simulators in most of the subsidiaries.
# Introduction of higher capacity equipments and standardizing their capacity.
# Introduction of GPS based OITDS for tracking and monitoring of the movement of individual equipment for its better utilization.
# Introduction of Mechanized Drilling Machines for improving coal availability in mines where SDL and LHD are deployed.
