Summary
- Coal India's net profit declined 30.76% in Q2 2025

In the quarter ended September 2025, Coal India, the state-owned coal mining company, faced a significant decline in its financial performance. The company's net profit plummeted by 30.76% to Rs 4,354.28 crore, down from Rs 6,289.10 crore in the same quarter of the previous year.
The primary driver behind this drop in profitability was a 1.33% decline in sales, which fell to Rs 26,909.23 crore from Rs 27,271.30 crore in the previous year's quarter. This sales decline, coupled with a drop in the company's operating profit margin from 31.60% to 24.96%, contributed to the substantial reduction in net profit.
The challenging market conditions and operational factors that led to these financial results are likely to have a significant impact on Coal India's performance in the coming quarters. The company will need to address these issues and implement strategic measures to regain its footing in the industry and deliver better results for its stakeholders.
