Performance Review of Coal Sector During the XI Plan (June 2011)
Uploaded: June 2011 Performance Review of Coal Sector During the XI Plan Introduction The XI Plan started with a note for high growth in coal sector in line with the envisaged economic development. Coal demand and production were envisaged to grow at 9.5% (CAGR) against an actual growth of 5.6% achieved in the X Plan. Even at this growth a gap in demand and supply of 51 million tonnes in the terminal year 2011-12 was envisaged. However, the situation changed swiftly after first two years of the plan partially due to global financial crisis affecting the markets and local environmental concerns restricting the coal mining which led to revision of targets downwards during the Mid Term Appraisal (MTA) of the XI Plan.
