Coal shipments handled by India's 12 major ports saw a 16.28 per cent jump in the nine months ending December 2018 to 121.13 million tonnes (MT), according to ports' body IPA.
Coal shipments, comprising thermal/steam and coking coal, were up 17 per cent and 15 per cent respectively in the April-December period of the ongoing fiscal.
These ports had handled 104.17 MT coal in April-December 2017.
The Indian Ports Association (IPA) said these state-run ports handled 78.24 MT of thermal/steam coal during the nine months against 66.87 MT in the year-ago period.
IPA in its latest report said the major ports handled shipments of 42.89 MT of coking coal during the nine months as against 37.30 MT in the year-ago period.
Thermal coal is the mainstay of India's energy programme as 70 per cent of power generation is dependent on the dry fuel, while coking coal is used mainly for steel-making.
Paradip Port Trust in Odisha handled the highest thermal and steam coal shipments during the period at 24.39 MT, followed by Kamarajar Port (erstwhile Ennore) in Tamil Nadu at 18.17 MT and Deendayal Port Trust in Gujarat at 11.41 MT.
