Birla Corporation Limited has commenced mining operations at its Bikram Coal Mine located in Burhar, Shahdol, Madhya Pradesh, effective 23rd April 2026. The mine has an annual production capacity of 9.44 Million Tonnes of thermal coal. This is a captive coal mine, likely intended to support the company's cement and power requirements. Backward integration into coal mining is expected to reduce dependence on market purchases and insulate the company from fuel price volatility.
Positive for shareholders — captive coal supply at this scale (9.44 MTPA) should lower raw material costs, improve operating margins, and enhance energy security for the company's cement business over the long term.
