Bharat Coking Coal Limited Reports March Production; FY26 Output Falls

Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL) disclosed provisional production figures for March 2026 and the full financial year April 2025–March 2026 under the SEBI Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements. The disclosure was submitted to BSE Limited and the National Stock Exchange of India by the company secretary and compliance officer. Raw coal output rose slightly in March but full year production declined by 12.3 per cent year-on-year, reflecting operational constraints during the period.

In March 2026 BCCL reported raw coal production of 4.42 million tonnes (mn t) compared with 4.33 million tonnes (mn t) in March 2025, representing a two per cent year-on-year increase. Coking coal output rose to 4.22 mn t from 4.07 mn t, an increase of three point six per cent, while non-coking coal fell to 0.20 mn t from 0.26 mn t, down 22.9 per cent. The rise in coking coal offset the decline in non-coking volumes for the month.

For the full financial year BCCL recorded raw coal production of 35.52 mn t, down from 40.50 mn t in FY25, a decline of 12.3 per cent. Annual coking coal production declined to 33.70 mn t from 38.89 mn t, down 13.4 per cent, while non-coking coal rose to 1.82 mn t from 1.61 mn t, up 13 per cent. Mining mode data showed continued reliance on opencast operations as underground output weakened and washed coal volumes and overburden removal fell year-on-year.

Coal dispatch also contracted, with March shipments at 2.66 mn t against 3.52 mn t a year earlier, a fall of 24.4 per cent, and annual offtake at 33.05 mn t versus 38.25 mn t, down 13.6 per cent. The results underline pressures on domestic metallurgical coal availability for the steel sector and may influence import requirements if production and dispatch trends persist. The company will need to address operational and logistical constraints to restore output and sales momentum.
