Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL), a subsidiary of Coal India Limited, introduced a Performance Incentive (PI) relaxation and Cash Discount scheme specifically for power sector consumers for the first quarter of FY 2026–27. The scheme was designed to encourage higher coal offtake by offering financial incentives based on different slabs of coal lifting. It applies to consumers under Fuel Supply Agreements and includes provisions for both raw coal and washed power coal. By implementing this scheme, BCCL aims to optimize coal distribution efficiency and support power generation needs in India.
