Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Bharat Coking Coal has lost a Supreme Court case in connection with a 2010 contract given to AT-Libra BPL joint venture for hiring heavy earth moving machinery at the Golukdih coal project in Dhanbad. The top court upheld earlier orders directing BCCL to pay Rs 46.20 crore along with interest at 10.5 percent per annum. The company said it has been advised to file a review petition against the order. The dispute covers equipment hiring for overburden removal and coal transportation work.
Negative for shareholders. Company faces a firm payout of Rs 46.20 crore plus continuing interest at 10.5 percent a year, with limited legal avenues left.
