The company’s operational revenue for the quarter stood at ₹378.25 billion, reflecting its continued dominance in the coal sector.
 
Key Highlights:
  • Dividend Boost: The board approved a final dividend of ₹5.15 per share, rewarding shareholders and underscoring Coal India’s commitment to strong returns.
  • Profit Beats Street: Q4 consolidated net profit soared to ₹96.04 billion, significantly surpassing the IBES estimate of ₹79.25 billion. This impressive result was fueled by higher coal supplies and disciplined cost management.
