ICICI Securities Report

Coal India Ltd.’s Q3 FY22 offtake volumes at 174 million tonne (up 12.8% YoY) took nine months-FY22 volumes to 481.8 mnte, up 17.6% YoY (up 15.4% versus nine months-FY20), at an all-time high. Key factors behind the surge in offtake volumes were:

  1. higher power demand;

  2. low coal stocks at most power plants;

  3. unprecedented power prices on exchanges in October 2021,

  4. elevated global coal prices, forcing Indian importers to look for domestic alternatives,

  5. renewable energy generation still some way off from becoming a substitute for coal, especially during non-solar hours of the day.

If Coal India ends FY22E with 15% YoY growth, it will reach its annual offtake target of 660 mnte, higher than consensus and our own conservative estimate of 625 mnte.
