for development of an Iron Ore berth at Kamarajar Port (earlier known as Ennore Port) near Chennai to handle Iron Ore capacity of 12 MMTPA. M/s SIOTL could not commence commercial operations due to non availability of iron ore from Bellary-Hospet Sector in Karnataka State and banning of mining / movement of iron ore for exports by state govt. In view of uncertain future of iron ore exports and to utilize the infrastructure created, Kamarajar Port Limited (KPL) decided to award the facility for modi?cation of the facility to handle common user coal. As coal does not have synergy with MMTC's existing line of business, In Sept'2016, MMTC Board decided to exit from the JV.

MMTC invited bids through online tender for sale of its entire 26% equity in the SIOTL, however no response was received. As per "Right of First Refusal" in Shareholders Agreement of SIOTL, SICAL Logistics Ltd; (SLL) (lead promoter of SIOTL) offered to purchase MMTC's equity at reserve price ?xed by MMTC which MMTC Board decided to accept.

NCLT vide it order dated 08.12.2022 has approved the resolution plan of SLL and the successful resolution applicant has been appointed. Further NCLT vide its Order dated 23rd June'23 has decided to initiate the liquidation process in respect of Sical Iron Ore Terminal Limited (SIOTL) and has accordingly appointed the Liquidator for the same.
