India’s coal & lignite production at ‘historical’ one billion tonnes 

India has achieved a significant milestone by producing one billion tonnes of coal and lignite, making it the world's second-largest coal producer after China. The achievement was reached 25 days ahead of schedule and surpasses the previous fiscal year's production. The country's focus on increasing output from captive and commercial mines is driven by the growing demand for coal in the power and industrial sectors. India's power demand is projected to grow by 6-7% annually, with coal accounting for 70% of electricity generation. The achievement ensures energy security and supports the economy's growth. India also currently maintains sufficient coal stocks for the peak summer season.
