How to read it

The MoU is described as non-binding, meaning it sets out an intent to study the idea rather than a firm obligation to build. Any actual project would depend on the outcome of the feasibility work and further approvals.

Coal gasification converts coal into gas that can be used as feedstock, here for urea, a fertiliser. For a coal producer, such tie-ups point towards potential value addition beyond selling raw coal, though at this stage the arrangement remains exploratory.
