Strength and Weakness

Largest coal producer in India

BCCL is the largest domestic producer of coking coal, holding a cumulative production share of 58.50% in FY25. As of April 1, 2024, it has 7.91 billion tonnes of coking coal resources. This accounts for India’s total coking coal resource base of 36.8 billion tonnes, making it the sole source of prime coking coal in the country.

Extensive mining reserves

The company holds mining leases and rights for 28,830.95 hectares, valid until March 31, 2050. This ensures a longer mining horizon while improving mining efficiency and reducing costs. Large reserves provide economies of scale, which lower per-unit extraction costs and support stable margins amid price volatility.

Strategically located mines and washery infrastructure

The operations primarily take place in the Jharia and Raniganj coalfields, which have abundant coking coal reserves. The company has a total installed capacity of 13.65 MTPA in its coking coal washery, the highest in the country. This enhances coal quality and revenue. Key washeries use advanced beneficiation technologies, which lower ash content and ensure regulatory compliance. They also produce diverse coal products for various industrial users.

Strong and diversified demand base

Revenue visibility is solid due to a diversified customer mix, mainly from regulated industries. In FY25, the power sector generated 73.98% of revenue, while the steel industry contributed 18.15%. This ensures stable demand. The company has long-standing relationships with over 260 customers, including repeat orders from 159 customers in the past five years. This adds to earnings stability and reduces the risk from counterparties.

The company benefits from the strategic, technical, and managerial support of Coal India Limited (CIL), the largest coal producer in the world. Board representation and executive oversight, along with access to group-level expertise, improve governance and execution. This enhances credibility with customers and regulators. Support from CMPDIL further boosts mine planning, exploration, and operational efficiency.

About Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL)

Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL) produces various grades of coking coal, non-coking coal and washed coals, which has application primarily in the steel and power industries. BCCL is a wholly owned subsidiary of Coal India Limited and conferred with Mini Ratna status in 2014.
BCCL is one of the largest domestic producer of coking coal, contributing 58.50% to India's total coking coal production in FY25. The company operates in the Jharia coalfields of Jharkhand and the Raniganj coalfields of West Bengal, two of the richest coal-bearing areas in the country.
The operational portfolio of BCCL includes opencast and underground mining projects, coal washeries, monetisation of old and idle coal washeries through the Washery Developer and Operator (WDO) route and restoration of operations in discontinued underground mines through the Mine Developer and Operator (MDO) model.
The company’s estimated coking coal reserves is around 7,910 MMT, as on April 1, 2024, making it one of the biggest contributors to coking coal reserves in India. As of September 30, 2025, the company runs 34 mines, including 26 opencast mines, 4 underground mines, and 4 mixed mines. Opencast mining is the main extraction method, contributing 97.19% of total coal production in FY25. Underground mining made up about 2.81%, indicating a focus on volume and cost efficiency.
The company operates five washeries and is developing additional washeries with an aggregate capacity of 7.00 million tonnes a year to improve coal quality and reduce ash content. In return, these plants help in supplying washed coking coal to steel manufacturers and facilitating domestic substitution of imported coking coal. In FY25, the proportion of washed coking coal to total dispatches was 30.70%, whereas washed power coal made up 51.89%.
The steel and power industries are the main sources of the company's coal offtake. In FY25, the power sector, including captive power, made up 77.61% of revenue, while steel industry accounted for 2.21% of total coal sales and fertiliser companies contributed 1.03%. Additionally, 14.94% of the total sales were used internally by company-owned washeries, demonstrating the operational integration of beneficiation and mining operations. Some of its key clients include Damodar Valley Corporation, Uttar Pradesh Rajya Vidyut Utpadan Nigam, SAIL, NTPC and many others.
As of September 30, 2025, it has commissioned 26.97 MW of solar power, which includes 6.97 MWp of rooftop solar power and 20.00 MW of ground-based solar power. In addition to these, it also intends to execute coal bed methane projects in the Jharia sector, which represents its attempt to harness its ancillary resources in a manner that aligns with the long-term goals of a net-zero target by 2070 in India.
The demand for Indian coking coal in FY25 stood at 67 MMT, which is expected to rise to 138 MMT by FY35, driven by the expanding Indian steel industry. BCCL is well-positioned to take advantage of this demand trend. It is less susceptible to resource depletion because it is the largest coking coal producer in India and has a robust reserve base. Its mines are strategically located in the Jharia and Raniganj coalfields, which are rich in high-quality coking coal, thus supporting effective extraction and a reliable supply.
The company is focused on utilising its resources effectively by undertaking technological advancements, including the procurement of high-capacity heavy earth moving machinery (HEMM). It also aims to transform discontinued mines into profitable ventures and implement energy conservation methods.
Now, Bharat Coking Coal Ltd is launching its initial public offering (IPO), which consists of an offer for sale of ₹1,071 crore. Its shares will be listed on the NSE and BSE.
