The brokerage expects Coal India?s earnings trajectory to improve over the next few years, forecasting a 9% earnings CAGR during FY26-FY28, supported by higher e-auction premiums, rising dispatch volumes and a recovery in power demand.

It has also raised its earnings estimates for FY26-FY28 by 1% to 4%, largely factoring in stronger e-auction realisations. The brokerage expects dispatch volumes to grow at a compound annual growth rate of about 5% over FY26-FY28, with total dispatches projected to increase from around 735 million tonnes in FY26 to about 810 million tonnes by FY28.

According to the report, Coal India could benefit from a rebound in electricity consumption, particularly amid expectations of intense summer conditions and weaker monsoon patterns, which may lead to higher power demand.

The brokerage also highlighted the positive impact of rising international coal prices on domestic e-auction premiums.

The report noted that Coal India continues to maintain a dominant position in the domestic coal market. The company accounts for about 60% of India?s total coal demand and nearly 75% of domestic coal production.

The brokerage said Coal India remains an attractive investment due to its strong balance sheet, net cash position and high dividend payouts.

State-run Coal India is mainly engaged in mining and production of coal and also operates coal washeries. The major consumers of the company are the power and steel sectors. Consumers from other sectors include cement, fertilizers, and brick kilns.

On a consolidated basis, Coal India (CIL)'s net profit declined 15.85% to Rs 7157.45 crore while net sales declined 4.76% to Rs 30818.17 crore in Q3 December 2025 over Q3 December 2024.

Coal India (CIL) allays domestic coal deficiency situation even as the power demand began picking up since January, signalling that coal demand could go up in the ensuing months.

The three layer buffer across the supply chain - coal inventory at CIL's pitheads, coal stocks at thermal power plants, and ready to extract in-situ coal exposure in CIL's mines- assures comfortable coal availability as the summer is beginning.

Coal India's producing subsidiaries are holding sizeable pithead coal stock to the tune of 115 Million Tonnes (MTs) as of 26 February 2026, which will further go up by the fiscal's closure.

Coal stocks at domestic coal based power plants stand at nearly 55 MTs (as of 25 February), the highest ever for the referred period. Further, there is a transit stock of 5.5 MTs of coal at goods sheds, washeries and ports put together.

The on tap coal accessibility of coal is approximately 175.5 MTs through these sources. This level of domestic coal sufficiency in the system can meet any spurt in power demand and from other sectors as well and dispels coal scarcity concerns.

The in-situ coal exposure, at mines that contribute to 90% of CIL's total annual output, was 60.2 MTs at the end of the first fortnight of February 2026. It means, large quantities of coal is already uncovered through over burden removal and is ready for extraction and supply at short notice.

?The cumulative quantity of CIL's pithead stock, plant stock at domestic coal based thermal power stations and exposed coal in-situ provides strong operational assurance?, said a senior official of CIL.

Higher quantities of domestic coal availability could catalyse coal import reduction as well. Also international coal prices have shown an upward trend as of February 2026.
