NTPC to buy coal from commercial mines amid rising power demand
State-run NTPC plans to purchase 10 to 15 million tonnes of coal from commercial miners during the second half of FY27 to meet an anticipated 300 million tonnes requirement for the fiscal year. This move comes as rising temperatures are fueling electricity demand, leading to NTPC's coal stocks falling to a 5-6 day supply.
