New Delhi, Nov 10: Coal India Ltd aims to increase production to reach its target of 875 million tonnes for the financial year 2025-26, as stated by Chairman Sanoj Kumar Jha.
Despite a challenging September and October due to heavy monsoon rains affecting mining operations, Jha expressed optimism about meeting industry coal requirements and stocking more coal by year-end compared to the previous year.
CIL targets a total dispatch of 900 million tonnes for 2025-26 and plans to ramp up production in the remaining months of the financial year after a production decline to 56.4 million tonnes in October. Additionally, regulations for a proposed coal exchange are expected to be finalized by the end of November.
