NMDC, the country’s leading iron ore producer, has posted its strongest July performance in the company’s history. Production reached 3.09 million tonnes (MT) while sales hit 3.46 MT, reflecting year-on-year growth of 43% and 13%, respectively.
The company also set new records in cumulative output for the fiscal year, with production totaling 15.09 MT and sales at 14.98 MT—a jump of 33% and 14% over the same period last year. These figures follow NMDC’s best-ever first quarter and establish a robust foundation for the remainder of FY26.
Chairman and Managing Director Amitava Mukherjee remarked, “We’ve begun the second quarter with record volumes. Our performance reflects the strength of our operations and the capability of our teams. With clear goals ahead, we are prepared to meet challenges and continue on a path of consistent growth.”
NMDC’s operational achievements are matched by its environmental commitments. Four of its iron ore mines recently earned five-star ratings from the Indian Bureau of Mines, recognizing the company’s adherence to sustainable and efficient mining practices. Backed by strong results and industry recognition, NMDC is positioned to maintain its growth momentum while delivering long-term value to all stakeholders.
National Mineral Development Corporation (NMDC), a leading public sector enterprise in India, plays a crucial role in the country’s iron ore production. With a strong presence in the mining sector, NMDC is focused on expanding its output, modernizing infrastructure, and exploring critical minerals like lithium and cobalt to support India’s transition to green energy. The company has ambitious growth plans under its Vision 2030, aiming to achieve a production capacity of 100 million tonnes. Backed by strategic investments and government support, NMDC continues to be a key driver of India’s mineral self-sufficiency and industrial progress.
