SHANGHAI, May 31 (SMM) – Coal India Ltd., one of the world's largest coal producers, raised coal prices for the first time in five years.
Prices for nine types of high-grade thermal coal will rise 8% from Wednesday, the company said in a statement, in a move aimed at boosting revenues and offsetting higher non-executive pay costs.
The prices gains are for high-quality coal used by industrial users, not for coal used by power plants to generate electricity, meaning the price hike should not have a significant impact on energy bills. India relies on coal for about 70% of its electricity generation.
