<h1>India's Iron Ore Demand Projected at 206M Tonnes for 2016-17; SAIL Plans Capacity Boost by 2025-26.</h1> The projected iron ore requirement in India for 2016-17 is about 206 million tonnes, according to the Working Group on Steel for the 12th Five Year Plan. SAIL's Vision 2025 plan aims to increase hot metal production capacity to 50.4 million tonnes per annum by 2025-26, necessitating 95.76 million tonnes of run-off mine iron ore annually. Public sector undertakings are enhancing operational efficiency through beneficiation, pelletization, optimizing coal blends, and using metallurgical waste. These measures include substituting cheaper nut coke and injecting pulverized coal to reduce reliance on costly coke. This information was provided by the Minister of State for Steel and Mines in Lok Sabha.
