The coal imports in India, as a percentage of total energy supply, have been declining steadily as domestic production scales up.<\/p>\n\n<h2 style=\"font-size:24px;font-weight:700;margin:34px 0 18px 0;color:#111;\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 18px 0;\">India imports coal from which countries?<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 18px 0;\">The top 5 coal exporting partners in India include Australia (US$1.17B, 30.43%), Indonesia (US$760.80M, 19.72%), and the United States (US$589.14M, 15.27%). Russia (US$572.40M, 14.83%) and Italy (US$252.26M, 6.54%).<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 18px 0;\">Underneath these flows, India&#x27;s domestic production crossed 1 billion tonnes in FY2026, while 90% met coal import dependency and 64% of new steel capacity built on blast furnace technology locked in structural import demand through 2035, when met coal imports are projected to reach 149 MT.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 18px 0;\">Discover deeper <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradeint.com\/product\/countries-covered\/?utm_source=blog_article&amp;utm_campaign=seo_marketing_organic&amp;utm_content=india-import-coal-from-which-countries\" style=\"color:#0456cc;text-decoration:underline;\">country-level data coverage<\/a> on TradeInt.<\/p>\n\n<h2 style=\"font-size:24px;font-weight:700;margin:34px 0 18px 0;color:#111;\"><strong>Frequently asked questions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<h3><strong>Which countries does India import coal from?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 18px 0;\">India imports coal from 10 partner countries in Q1 2026, with the top 5 being Australia (US$1.17 billion, 30.43%), Indonesia (US$760.80 million, 19.72%), the United States (US$589.14 million, 15.27%), Russia (US$572.40 million, 14.83%), and Italy (US$252.26 million, 6.54%). South Africa, Mozambique, Canada, New Zealand, and Tanzania round out the top 10 partners under HS 2701.<\/p>\n\n<h3><strong>Why does India import so much coal?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 18px 0;\">India imports coal mainly because approximately 90% of its metallurgical (coking) coal needs come from imports, according to IEEFA, and Indian steelmakers run blast furnace operations requiring imported coking grades that domestic production cannot match at current quality levels. <\/p>\n\n<h3><strong>Does India import coal from other countries?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 18px 0;\">Yes, India imports coal from at least 10 international partners under HS 2701 in Q1 2026, spanning Oceania (Australia, New Zealand), Asia (Indonesia), North America (United States, Canada), Europe (Italy, Russia), and Africa (South Africa, Mozambique, Tanzania). <\/p>\n\n<h3><strong>Where does most of India&#x27;s coal come from?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 18px 0;\">Most of India&#x27;s coal comes from Australia, leading at US$1.17 billion (30.43% share) in Q1 2026 by value, while Indonesia leads at 23.61 MMT by volume, according to TradeInt&#x27;s India import data.<\/p>\n\n<h3><strong>Which country is the largest exporter of coal to India?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 18px 0;\">Australia is the largest exporter of coal to India in Q1 2026, valued at US$1.17 billion (30.43% share), driven by premium coking coal shipments for India&#x27;s blast furnace steel sector, based on TradeInt&#x27;s coal import data. Australia continues to supply nearly half of global seaborne metallurgical coal exports, anchoring its structural position as India&#x27;s primary supplier.<\/p>\n\n<h2 style=\"font-size:24px;font-weight:700;margin:34px 0 18px 0;color:#111;\">Other relevant articles about Import & Export in India<\/h2>\n\n<ol style=\"margin:0 0 22px 22px;padding:0;color:#222;\">\n    <li style=\"margin:0 0 10px 0;color:#222;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/tradeint.com\/insights\/india-edible-oil-imports\/\" style=\"color:#0456cc;text-decoration:underline;\">India imports edible oil from which countries in Q1\/2026?<\/a><\/li>\n  \n<\/ol>\n\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key takeaways about India&#8217;s coal import India imports coal from which countries?
