Coal Mines Provident Fund Organisation (CMPF) is an agency of the Indian government established in 1948 under The Coal Mines Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act 1948.[1] It serves as the official pension fund of coal miners and is financed by coal producers on a per-tonne basis.[2] The fund pays the pensions of about 500,000 former coal miners, and has been considered financially precarious since 2017.
