All potential investors pls read the CIL 2008-09 Chairmans statement at CIL's site, wherein he has metioned that due to increase in pay and wage revision (52.98% of the total cost of production, which amounts to Rs 8348.70cr), had the effect of bringing down the pre-tax profit from Rs 14092.80cr to Rs 5744.10cr. Pl note that the coal prices can go down but their salaries won't. Also all the environmental clearances pending and the new 26 % profit sharing rule?? These issues are thought provoking on profit sustainability?? Pl advice if it worth investing from long term perspective...and also for listing gains ??
Can anyone reconfirm that the book value of CIL is just Rs 30/- ??

With the average EPS of last 3 yrs around 10 , and book value of hardly 30, Coal India will be the costliest PSU to be sold thru IPO.Being PSU, SEBI will keep quiet. It will be another NMDC if not RPower. If the govt really expects public to participate, They can not issue IPo at fancy price first , and then follow up with Min of Environmemt, Green one, stopping projects , then another Mines Ministry calling for huge profit share for so called Project affected. NMDC was a classic case of Public being dumped with dud shares. now It is Coal India.. it should have been priced less than 8-10 PE of say about 75-80 only. It is gross profiteering ..

Can one really expect high listing gains of such large issue ?? Just think of the remaining 90% which is still there with Govt. ??
