→ Coal India has set an ambitious asset monetisation target of ₹76,264 crore for FY26, a sharp rise from ₹28,462 crore achieved in FY25, mainly driven by mine developer-operator projects and monetisation of discontinued assets. → The company plans to open six new mines this year, including two MDO projects, and aims for over ₹16,000 crore in capital expenditure, with ₹5,622 crore earmarked for transportation and evacuation infrastructure. → As part of the coal ministry’s broader goal to enhance domestic production and cut imports, over 20 new mines are expected to be operationalised in FY26 toward a 500 MT annual capacity goal by 2029–30.
