Coal India is most likely to surpassing the ambitious 700 million tonne production target by March 2023, said chairman Pramod Agrawal on 1 January, 2023. He added that a 'price revision is essential' for the dry fuel to get the company compensated adequately.
Once the company meets the annual production target with over 12 per cent growth for the first time set by the government, it will be another feather in coal India's cap. In 2021-22, the production was 622.6 million tonne.
To meet India's growing energy demand, the Kolkata-headquartered company is extracting more coal, however, at the same time, it was 'taking several measures to reduce emissions to support the country's net zero target by 2070'.
