- (c)  whether  the  Government  has  any  proposal  to  revive  the  closed  Japla  Cement  factory  in Jharkhand and

## ANSWER

## MINISTER  OF  STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF  HEAVY INDUSTRIES AND PUBLIC ENTERPRISES  (SHRI  G.M. SIDDESHWARA)

- (a): Details  of cement  plants/factories  presently  functional  in  the  countries  as  provided  by Department of Industrial Policy and  Promotion (DIPP) is enclosed as Annexure-I.
- (b): Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion  has intimated that cement industries has been decontrolled in 1989 and de-licensed in 1991under the policy of liberalization and, hence, the Department  does not take any action to revive sick cement industries. Further, Ministry of Finance/Department of  Financial  Services  has  informed  that  certain  measures  like  financial  reconstruction, change in management of sick company, amalgamation with other company, sale or lease  of  part  of  or  whole  of  sick  company  etc.  are  recommended  by  Board  for  Industrial  and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR). A list of sick cement plants registered and pending with BIFR with their current status (State-wise) is attached as per Annexure-II.

So  far  as  Cement  Corporation  of  India(CCI),  a  Central  Public  Sector  Enterprise  under Department of Heavy Industry is concerned, it is a BIFR referred sick company having Corporate office in Delhi. It has following operating and non operating units:

## Operating Units

1. Bokajan, Distt. Karbi Anglong, Assam
2. Rajban, Distt. Sirmour, Himachal Pradesh
3. Tandur, Distt. Rangareddy, Telangana.

## Non-operating units

1. Mandhar, District Raipur, Chhattisgarh
2. Akaltara, District Champa, Chhattisgarh
3. Nayagaon/Nayagaon Expansion, District Neemuch, Madhya Pradesh
4. Kurkunta, District Gulbarga, Karnataka
5. Charkhi Dadri, District Bhiwani, Haryana
6. Adilabad, District Adilabad, Telangana.
7. Delhi Grinding Unit, Delhi

The  Revival  Scheme  of  CCI,  as  approved  by  the  Government  and  ordered  by  BIFR, envisages expansion/ modernisation of 3 operating units and closure and sale of 7 non-operating units along with implementation of VSS in the same.  Out of 7 non-operating units, 6 units have been  closed  w.e.f  October,  2008  and  employees  of  these  units  were  separated  under  VSS.  The Adilabad  unit  could  not  be  closed  due  to  interim  order  of  the  Hon'ble  High  Court  of  Andhra Pradesh for maintaining status-quo. Action for expansion/ modernization of the operating units was taken.  However, the results of the entire scheme for revival of CCI could not reach the desired level because of non-sale of the assets of non-operating units of the company, which has caused a shortage  of  funds  for  the  revival.  BIFR  has  directed  for  an  entire  new  Modified  Draft  Revival Scheme (MDRS).

(c) & (d): Ministry  of  Finance/  Department  of  Financial  Services  has  intimated  that  no company  by  the  name  of  M/s  Japla  Cement  Factory  has  been  registered  as  a  sick  company  in BIFR.
