India’s coal production may reach about 1.5 billion tonnes by 2029-30: G Kishan Reddy

10 Mar 2026 Evaluate

In order to meet the future demand of coal through indigenous sources and to reduce non-essential import of coal, Union Minister of Coal and Mines G Kishan Reddy has said that domestic coal production is likely to grow by around 6-7 per cent annually in the next few years to reach about 1.5 billion tonnes by 2029-30. He noted that the country's coal demand is expected to continue rising and is likely to peak around 2040. India is presently augmenting its domestic coal production to meet the increasing energy requirements of the country. 

Further, he stated that in 2024-25, India's coal production stood at about 1,047.69 MT. However, the sector also faces several challenges. The rapid growth of renewable energy sources, with the declining cost of solar and wind power, has resulted in the accumulation of pit-head coal stock.

Besides depletion of reserves at shallow and medium depths, and techno-economic viability issues in the extraction of coal beyond 300 metre depth are also a challenge. There are also challenges in land acquisition and taking physical possession of tenancy land due to authentication issues of land records and resistance from landowner.
