COALspot.com : The government of India raised basic customs duty and countervailing duty on steam coal. In the meantime government has reduced  custom and countervailing duty on Bituminous coal.

Finance Minister of India in his budget speech today, announced a hike in the basic customs duty on steam coal from present Zero to two percent and CVD from one per cent to two per cent. Steam coal also known as thermal coal or power plant coal is mainly used in power generation.

Recently Indian customs officers defined coal with Volatile Matter over 14 percent and calorific value over 5833 kcal/kg on moisture, mineral matter free (DMMF) basis as "Bituminous Coal".

"Prior to today’s announcement, steam coal is exempt from customs duty but subject to one percent  concessional CVD. In the meantime, Bituminous coal attracts a duty of 5 per cent and CVD of 6 per cent. The government has equalized the duties on both type of coal and levy two per cent customs duty and two per cent CVD.

According to Media reports, India has imported around 30 million tons of bituminous coal last year against around 50 million tons of steam coal.
