The Hindu
Covid-19 disruptions caused a lower demand forcing the miner to moderate the output, officials say.
World's largest miner Coal India is likely to post a marginal contraction of its output for the year 2020-21 by 5-6 million tonne in 2020-21 as its production will fall below the 600 million mark, sources said on Sunday. In 2019-20, the miner produced 602 million tonne down from 606.9 million in 2018-19 when it registered its highest production. It will be the second year in a row when the miner will register degrowth. The miner had projected a 660 million tonne production target and by mid-year the company had been expecting to attain 630-640 million tonne of output.More Related News
