NMDC’s monthly production and sales report is a provisional update on iron ore volumes, not a financial-results statement. To interpret it, match each measure to the right period, compare it with the same period a year earlier, and read the state-level rows as well as the total. The figures do not, by themselves, show revenue, prices, profit, inventory movements or why production and sales differ.
What NMDC’s monthly report tells you
The filing reports iron ore production and sales, identifies the financial year and reporting month, and labels the figures provisional. For example, NMDC’s disclosure dated 1 November 2025 is titled “Details of Production & Sales of Iron Ore (Provisional) for and upto October, 2025” and covers October 2025 in FY 2025-26. NMDC’s investor disclosures are the place to check for the report covering the month you need; the October 2025 example is not evidence of the latest filing today.
“Provisional” means the figures are reported as provisional, not as final audited totals. Treat them as an operational volume update rather than a measure of financial performance.
How to read the four measures
The table separates the current month from the financial-year-to-date total, and production from sales. Each current-period figure has a corresponding prior-year comparison.
#1 Best Overall
- Vehicle inspection report book helps document and report needed repairs to help maintain safe workplace utility vehicles.
- Heavy equipment inspection report contains a checklist of 36 common vehicle items and space for additional comments. Easy to use for reporting vehicle condition.
- This equipment maintenance log book set comes with 25 books. Each book contains 31 sets of forms. In total, you will receive 775 forms.
- The maintenance book is 2-ply and carbonless.
- Driver inspection books measure 5.5" x 8.5".
| Measure | What it covers | Like-for-like comparison |
|---|---|---|
| Production for the month | Iron ore produced during the reporting month | The same month one year earlier |
| Sales for the month | Iron ore sold during the reporting month | The same month one year earlier |
| Cumulative production | Production from the start of the financial year through the reporting month | The same year-to-date endpoint one year earlier |
| Cumulative sales | Sales from the start of the financial year through the reporting month | The same year-to-date endpoint one year earlier |
“Cumulative up to October” therefore means the financial-year-to-date total through October, not October’s production or sales alone. Compare October with October, and cumulative figures through October with the prior year’s cumulative figures through October. A monthly figure and a cumulative figure cover different spans and should not be compared directly.
What production and sales mean—and what a gap does not prove
Production is the volume produced; sales is the volume sold. They are distinct measures. If production in a month is greater than sales, that difference alone does not establish what happened to inventory, whether timing or product mix mattered, or why the figures diverged. The monthly filing does not provide that causal explanation.

The report measures volume in MT. In the October 2025 table, 4.27 MT means 4.27 million tonnes in the filing’s reporting convention. It is not a statement of price per tonne or money earned.
Worked example: NMDC’s October 2025 figures
The total row of NMDC’s 1 November 2025 provisional filing gives the following values. Amounts are in million tonnes (MT), as reported by NMDC; the earlier-period figures are the matching October 2024 month or cumulative period.

| Measure | October 2025 / through October 2025 | Corresponding prior-year period |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly production | 4.27 | 4.07 in October 2024 |
| Monthly sales | 3.89 | 4.03 in October 2024 |
| Cumulative production | 26.47 through October 2025 | 21.55 through October 2024 |
| Cumulative sales | 26.14 through October 2025 | 23.84 through October 2024 |
Read the comparisons separately: October 2025 production was above October 2024 production, while October 2025 sales were below October 2024 sales. Through October, both cumulative production and cumulative sales were above their corresponding year-earlier totals. Those are volume comparisons only; they do not explain the causes or financial effect of the differences.
How to read the state rows
The October 2025 table reports Chhattisgarh and Karnataka separately, followed by a total. The monthly production and sales figures were:
Rank #4
- HIGH-QUALITY MATERIALS: Black front and back covers made of sturdy polypropylene and 12-pocket/24-pages made of clear non-glare polypropylene to provide long-lasting, spill-proof, stain-resistant durability paper report covers can't provide.
- DISTINCTIVE DETAILING: Rounded corners, sturdy weight front and back cover, and a full-page front exterior clear pocket to complement your polished presentation.
- ACCOMMODATING: Each pocket holds back-to-back sheets for times when a book-style presentation is preferred to a front page only display.
- ADDENDUM POCKET: Back cover includes a slanted clear poly interior pocket to hold extra documentation or materials
- CLASSIC LOOK: Black 0.375" spine, front/back covers with heat-welded seams for a polished lay-flat look to complement your work
| Region | October 2025 production (million tonnes) | October 2025 sales (million tonnes) |
|---|---|---|
| Chhattisgarh | 3.06 | 2.77 |
| Karnataka | 1.21 | 1.12 |
| Total | 4.27 | 3.89 |
Read the regional rows to see each state’s reported contribution before relying on the total for the company-wide headline. The table shows the amounts, but does not supply enough context to explain why a state’s contribution changed.

Production and sales volumes alone do not establish the price realized per tonne, revenue attributable to those tonnes, costs, margins or profit. To assess those questions, consult the relevant pricing disclosures and financial results rather than deriving a financial conclusion from the volume table. NMDC’s July 2025 disclosure uses the same monthly, cumulative and prior-year comparison pattern and links to its investor page for “Details of Production and Sales and Prices of Iron Ore.”
