South Eastern Coalfields Limited (SECL), Bilaspur is a Mini Ratna Public Sector Undertaking and a subsidiary of Coal India Limited. The coal miner is located in the states of Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh in India. The mines are located in isolated areas and have a significant impact on the local communities.

Secondary beneficiaries should be underprivileged communities living in the states where the company operates.

According to the CSR policy of SECL, the primary beneficiaries of CSR efforts should be land oustees, PAPs, and those living within a 25 km radius of the SECL establishment. The underprivileged communities living in the states where the company operates should be secondary beneficiaries.
