On this exceptional start to FY26, Shri Amitava Mukherjee, CMD, NMDC, said, “Our consistent performance speaks volumes about NMDC’s commitment to excellence and growth.  Our record-breaking April performance, coupled with best – ever despatch figures from our major iron ore mines – Kirandul, Bacheli, and Donimalai with a growth of 12%, 4% & 88% respectively over CPLY solidifies our leadership position and sets a strong foundation for achieving our ambitious target of becoming 100MT mining company by 2030.”

In April 2025, NMDC achieved its highest-ever monthly despatch, marking a significant 23% increase over CPLY. The Bacheli Complex also excelled, recording its best-ever April road despatch at 2.22 lakh tonnes (LT), a notable 25% rise. Furthermore, the company’s pellet production soared to an all-time high of 0.23 lakh tonnes, surpassing the previous April record set in 2018.

NMDC’s remarkable performance showcases its operational agility and strategic vision. The company remains dedicated to securing raw materials and meeting India’s rising steel demand.
