In May 2024, India witnessed a 30% m-o-m increase in met coke imports, reaching 0.36 million tonnes (mnt) compared to 0.28 mnt in April 2024. The imports were on higher side due to persistent price difference in imported and domestic materials. The imported met coke prices continue to be cost affective compared to the domestic material. The imported met coke prices were at an average of about INR 29,000- 30,000/t for the month as against INR 34,000/t in the domestic market. Also, all the merchant cokeries haven't resumed at full capacity.

The rise in imports was also due to fall in production which was recorded at 3.83 mnt in April, 2024 as compared with 4.32 mnt in March, 2024. The domestic cokeries had increased their prices in response to the DGTR recommendations made for the import restriction and limitations. Country-wise imports India's met
