In July, the company reported its best-ever sales and production figures for the first quarter of FY24 ending June 30, 2023.

The company posted production of 3.48 million tonnes (MnT) and sales of 4.1 MnT of iron ore in June, which are the highest figures for the June quarter in NMDC's history. Production for April, May, and June also reached record highs.

Significant Growth in Production and Sales

NMDC experienced a robust 35 per cent increase in production and a staggering 115 per cent increase in sales compared to the previous month. In Q1 of FY24, the company's cumulative production and sales grew by 20 per cent to 10.7 MnT and 45 per cent to 11.15 MnT, respectively. This exceptional performance can be seen as a direct result of NMDC's strategic investments in mine planning, expansion, and efficient human asset management over the previous fiscal year.
