State-owned CIL on Monday said that it produced 47.3 million tonnes (MT) of coal last month, registering a growth of 11 per cent from the year-ago period.
The production of domestic coal usually dips during monsoon every year due to disruptions in mining activity.
The company’s output in the corresponding month of previous fiscal was 42.6 million tonnes (MT), the coal behemoth said in a BSE filing.
Coal India Ltd (CIL) said it maintained the double-digit rising streak for four consecutive months of the current financial year.
Coal India accounts for over 80 per cent of domestic coal production.
