Telangana has become the 14th state to participate in India’s mineral auction regime, with the auction of two limestone blocks at Sultanpur and Saidulnama in November. These limestone blocks were auctioned to NCL Industries and Deccan Cement, marking the state’s entry into the Centre’s auction system. This initiative is aimed at boosting mineral production, particularly to meet the growing demands of industries like cement manufacturing. Telangana’s involvement in this regime highlights its commitment to enhancing its mining sector.
