RNCOS Research: Coal India Hikes Target To Meet Production Deficit Gap

Coal India Ltd (CIL) has raised its production target by about 4.8% for the year 2006 to 363MT. A mechanism has been devised, with the objective of enabling the captive blocks of private companies to sell coal to the nearest public sector coal companies. To develop and produce coal, suitable for captive consumption purposes, a total of 46 virgin blocks, with a total reserve of 5Bn tons have been identified. The Ministry is of the opinion that a mechanism has to be in place for encouraging the owners of these blocks to develop captive coalmines.

Panelist of Coal India Ltd (CIL) assert that by 2025, other than coking and low ash non-coking coal, the country would become largely self reliant for its coal requirement, minimizing the need for import.

However the current market trends are sans such optimism. An analysis of the Indian Coal industry reveals the glaring gap between the estimated demand & supply of coal in India at the end of 10th 5-year plan (2006-07). RNCOS in its latest market research reports an estimated gap of 55MT in the same period. With an AAGR of 14%, the gap is projected to increase by 70% by 2011-12.
