Coal is still an affordable fuel for a developing country
like India and even if it seems to currently be in a happy position with an

Everyone speaks of a cut in E&P spending but global capital spending for coal declined 13% in 2015. In 2016, capital expenditure declined by 9% to $27 billion due to further projects push back.
Coal prices have made a surprising recovery from around $40 in 2015 to over $100 pre tonne now.
