India’s coal production from Captive and Commercial coal mines reported 18.51% year-on-year growth to 20.49 million tonnes (MT) in February 2026, reflecting sustained operational momentum and progressive scaling up of mining activities across the sector. Coal dispatches stood at 17.72 MT in February 2026.
For the financial year 2025-26 up to February, cumulative coal production stood at 187.16 MT from these mines as compared to 167.73 MT in financial year 2024-25 up to February, registered a growth of 11.58% year-on-year, while cumulative dispatches recorded a 6.78% increase to 184.47 MT over the corresponding period of the previous year. The sustained expansion in production and offtake reflects strengthened operational efficiency, accelerated capacity augmentation, and improved coordination across the mining value chain.
The Ministry attributes the sector’s improved performance to strategic policy measures, rigorous monitoring, and sustained support to stakeholders. These interventions have played a pivotal role in expediting operational approvals, enhancing production capacities, and driving overall growth in coal output and dispatches.
