Quick Summary
Legally, Mr. ABC remains solely responsible for paying royalties to the government because he is the registered leaseholder. While he can have a private agreement for Mr. XYZ to cover the costs, the government only recognizes Mr. ABC. Furthermore, "renting out" a lease is generally prohibited without formal government approval and could risk the lease being canceled.
A mining lease holder CANNOT sub-lease or transfer mining rights without prior permission of State Government. If NO approval → arrangement may be illegal.
Royalty is payable to Government by the person holding the mining lease in Government records.
