Import Curbs on Low-Ash Metallurgical Coke: India's steel ministry supports extending import restrictions on low-ash metallurgical coke due to sufficient domestic supply, which poses challenges for steelmakers reliant on overseas sources.
Domestic Production and Industry Concerns: While India has the capacity to produce 7 million metric tons of met coke annually, current production is only about 3 million tons. Major steel producers are concerned that these restrictions could hinder their expansion plans and have warned the government about potential impacts on steelmaking.
