Quarter read
What the record says.
Coal India reported a solid H1 FY24 with production up 12% YoY and offtake up 9% YoY, driven by robust power demand (33% growth in October). Management reiterated the FY24 production target of 780 million tons and FY25 target of 851 million tons, supported by improving evacuation infrastructure and MDO ramp-up. E-auction premiums remain strong at 90% over notified price, though management sees no near-term FSA price hike for the power sector. The company is on track to achieve 1 billion tons by FY27, contingent on demand. Key risks include land acquisition delays (e.g., MCL's Basundhara stoppage) and railway rake shortages in SECL and MCL, which could constrain dispatches.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management confirmed the annual production target of 780 million tons for FY24, with H1 production up 12% YoY.
- Management guided for FY25 production of 851 million tons, implying ~9% YoY growth.
- Management expects e-auction volumes to be 15% of production in H2 FY24.
- MDO projects are expected to contribute 20-25 million tons in FY25 and 55-60 million tons in FY26.
Risks flagged
- MCL's Basundhara coal field faced a 26-day stoppage due to land compensation disputes, impacting production.
- Management acknowledged daily rake shortages of 5 rakes in SECL and MCL, constraining dispatches.
- E-auction premiums have been volatile, ranging from 50-60% to 90%, dependent on demand and import prices.
- Management ruled out any FSA price hike for the power sector in the next 7-8 months, limiting revenue growth.
Key quotes
- In October month alone, 33% coal-based power growth is there.
- Next 6 to 7 years, absolute, there is no issue, but rather, I will say it is up to 2040 also.
- By next year, we will be phasing out [MSTC].
