Coal India Limited has outlined plans to target 815 million tonne output and to pursue a capital expenditure of Rs 1 trillion (tn). The announcement frames production and investment targets as central to its medium term strategy.

T The capex programme will concentrate on mine development, logistics and technology upgrades aimed at sustaining higher output and improving efficiency. It will also fund infrastructure to support evacuation and handling, and investments in mechanisation and safety to reduce operational constraints. The plan will also involve collaboration with suppliers and contractors to streamline supply chains and to improve project delivery.

Management presented the targets as part of a broader plan to expand non coal output, enhance asset productivity and pursue sustainable practices. The focus on capacity augmentation and de bottlenecking is intended to address demand from power and industrial consumers while improving the quality of supplies. Key performance indicators will include production per mine and reduction in idle capacities.

The strategy is projected to support long term supply stability and to create capacity for meeting growing domestic requirements. Management said execution timelines and annual disbursements will be disclosed alongside operational updates, with emphasis on meeting the 815 mn t production objective. Investors and stakeholders will monitor delivery of projects and the progress in scaling non coal segments as indicators of the plan's success. The company will align investments with regulatory norms and environmental standards to ensure responsible development.
