India’s coal imports declined 9.0% week-on-week to 3.81 MT during 1–7 November, as a sharp fall in steam coal shipments outweighed a recovery in coking coal arrivals. Steam coal imports dropped 19.0% to 2.82 MT, while coking coal increased 40.6% to 0.99 MT.
Indonesia remained the largest supplier of steam coal at 1.54 MT, accounting for 54.7% of the category’s imports. South Africa followed with 0.65 MT and the United States with 0.34 MT. In coking coal, Australia led with 0.49 MT, followed by Russia at 0.24 MT and Mozambique at 0.20 MT.
