FAQ's

  • Mining companies need legal support throughout a project's lifecycle, from securing mineral rights, mining leases, environmental and forest clearances, and land acquisition to ensuring mine safety compliance. ALC Legal also assists with contracts, tax structuring, transactions, and dispute resolution, helping businesses stay compliant while achieving their commercial goals.

  • Mining leases are mainly governed by the MMDR Act, 1957, and the Mineral Concession Rules, with state governments issuing licences. Companies must meet lease conditions and compliance requirements, as violations can result in penalties, suspension, or lease cancellation. Legal guidance helps reduce these risks.

  • Mining projects require environmental clearance under the EIA Notification 2006 and, where applicable, forest clearance under the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980. Businesses may also need pollution control, safety, and land-related approvals. Coordinating these permissions is essential for smooth and legally compliant mining operations.

  • ALC Legal represents mining companies in disputes involving mining lease cancellations, royalty demands, concession agreements, environmental clearances, regulatory actions, and project suspensions. The firm also handles arbitration, commercial litigation, enforcement of awards, and strategic dispute resolution before courts, tribunals, and regulatory authorities across India.
