India’s coal exports rose 23.42 per cent to 1.908 million tonnes (MT) in the financial year 2024-25 as compared to 1.546 MT in 2023-24. The development assumes significance as the government is actively promoting coal exports to capitalise on the growing global demand for fossil fuels. In value terms, coal exports were worth Rs 1,828.2 crore in FY24 and Rs 1,643.4 crore in FY25.
India is likely to export 15 MT of coal to its neighbouring countries, including Nepal. To becoming a self-reliant, the government is promoting exports, increasing domestic production, and facilitating import substitution. India has the potential to export 8 MT of coal to Bangladesh, 3 MT to Myanmar, 2 MT to Nepal, and 2 MT to other countries.
The increased coal production and export will lead to economic growth, create jobs and generate revenue for the government. The reduction in coal imports and the promotion of exports are crucial steps in ensuring India's energy security. By relying more on domestically produced coal, the country can reduce its dependence on foreign sources and insulate itself from global price fluctuations.
