Khanij Online 2.0 – Mineral Governance at State Scale

Khanij Online 2.0 – Mineral Governance at State Scale

About the Client

A state government mineral administration ecosystem in India, responsible for regulating mineral movement, monitoring mining activities and managing associated permits, royalties and fees.

The initiative involved integrating mining lessees, end-use plants, transporters and government stakeholders through a unified digital platform to strengthen mineral governance and operational oversight.

The Challenge

Managing mineral production and transportation across a state requires coordination between mining operators, transporters, end-use plants and regulatory authorities.

The requirement was to establish a unified digital platform that would enable real-time mineral governance, control illegal diversions, reduce revenue leakage and integrate stakeholders across the state.

Key requirements included:

  • Improved visibility into mineral production and transportation
  • Monitoring of mineral-carrying vehicles and identification of unauthorized route deviations
  • Digital authorization and tracking of mineral movement
  • Integration of mining lessees, end-use plants and vehicles
  • Centralized monitoring and reporting for improved governance and accountability

The Solution

CS TECH Ai delivered Khanij Online 2.0, an integrated digital mineral governance platform connecting mining lessees, end-use plants and vehicles through real-time monitoring and digitally managed workflows.

The solution brought together vehicle tracking, electronic permits, transit-pass management and geospatial monitoring within a centralized environment.

Key elements included:

  • Unified Digital Platform: Integration of mining lessees, end-use plants and vehicles for centralized mineral governance.
  • Vehicle Tracking System (VTS): AIS-140 GPS-enabled vehicle tracking with geofencing and live route monitoring to identify deviations from approved routes.
  • e-Permit and e-Transit Pass Management: Digital authorization and tracking of mineral movement through electronic permits and transit passes.
  • Integrated Command & Control Centre: Centralized geospatial monitoring and real-time MIS dashboards for operational visibility and oversight.

The Impact

Khanij Online 2.0 established a digital framework for state-scale mineral governance, enabling centralized visibility into mineral movement, transportation activity and associated regulatory processes.

Key implementation highlights include:

108 mining lessees integrated into the platform
2,520 end-use plants connected
51,740 vehicles monitored
31 lakh+ e-Transit Passes issued
7 crore metric tonnes of minerals tracked
₹5,600+ crore in royalties and fees processed

The platform supports transparent mineral movement, improved regulatory oversight and stronger accountability through integrated digital workflows, live tracking and centralized monitoring.
