In a statement, CIL highlighted that all seven of its producing subsidiaries achieved positive growth, with five surpassing their individual production targets. June alone saw a production spike to 63 MT, reflecting a 9 percent increase from June 2024.

Total coal supplies by CIL during April-June 2024 reached 198.4 MTs, a 6 percent year-on-year growth compared to 187 MTs in the same period last year. Notably, coal supplies to thermal power plants increased by 4 percent to 160 MT, supporting the rising power demand in the country. Non-power sector supplies also surged to 38.4 MTs, marking a remarkable 16 percent growth from the previous year’s Q1 figures.

The average daily loading to the power sector improved to 325.7 rakes per day, a 6 percent increase year-on-year, underscoring enhanced logistical efficiency.
