BCCL Hands Over Dugda Coal Washery to JSW Steel

Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL) has formally handed over its 2.0 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) Dugda Coal Washery to JSW Steel Limited. This marks the first-ever asset monetization of a coal washery in India, operating under the guidance of the Ministry of Coal. The initiative aims to modernize, enhance operational efficiency, and optimize resource utilization through private sector participation. This move is expected to increase coal beneficiation capacity, boost domestic coking coal availability, reduce reliance on imported coking coal, save foreign exchange, and stimulate industrial development in the region.
