💨 Abstract

India is contemplating extending import restrictions on low-ash metallurgical coke (met coke), a key steelmaking ingredient, to boost domestic production. The move comes as Indian steel mills continue to prefer imports over domestic supplies, despite government encouragement for local sourcing. The sources, who wished to remain anonymous, cited the Minister of Commerce and Industry, Piyush Goyal's reservations about the mills' preference for imported met coke.
