Ministry of Steel NMDC Records Highest-Ever Production, Sales and Financial Performance in 9 Months of FY26
Posted On: 04 FEB 2026 12:15PM by PIB Delhi NMDC, India’s largest iron ore producer, delivered a stellar performance, registering robust growth across volumes and financials in 9 months of FY26.
The Responsible Miner reported its best-ever January production and sales, reinforcing its operational momentum. The company produced 5.56 Million Ton (MT) of iron ore and sold 4.79 MT, reflecting a strong year-on-year growth of 9% in production and 7% in sales over the corresponding period last year.
The company’s cumulative performance up to January 2026 further highlights this upward trajectory.
Production surged to 42.65 MT, marking an impressive 19% growth, while sales increased to 39.73 MT, up 9.7% year-on-year.
On the financial front, NMDC delivered robust FY26 9-month performance since inception. Revenue surged by 22% to ₹20,381 crore, while PBT climbed 5% to ₹7,280 crore. PAT rose 4% to ₹5,401 crore, and EBITDA expanded to ₹7,666 crore, registering a 5% growth. NMDC has also declared an interim dividend of Rs 2.50 per equity share for their shareholders. This performance was driven by record volumes and sustained operational excellence, firmly positioning NMDC among India’s most resilient mining companies.
With back-to-back record volumes and strong financials, NMDC remains firmly on track to achieve its annual targets and is well-positioned to set new benchmarks for the mining industry.
Achieving the best-ever figures since inception places NMDC strongly on course to meet its annual targets. January also marks a significant milestone with the inauguration of company’s first coal mine - Tokisud North Coal Mine in Jharkhand, a new feather to NMDC's cap.
This performance reflects NMDC’s strategic focus, operational resilience, and long-term vision. As the company continues to diversify its portfolio and strengthen its capabilities, it remains firmly committed to responsible mining and sustainable growth, reinforcing its leadership position in India’s mining sector.
