G20 Coal Subsidies: India

The document identifies that state-owned companies manage most coal mining and power production in India and tracks coal subsidies for 2016 and 2017. Additionally, it notes that while subsidies for renewable energy and electric vehicles more than doubled in FY 2022, India's support for fossil fuels remained four times higher than for clean energy, though this gap narrowed from FY 2021.

• Most coal mining and power production in India is conducted by state-owned companies.
• In FY 2022, subsidies for electric vehicles and renewable energy in India more than doubled, although the government must maintain this momentum to meet climate targets.
• Despite the increase in clean energy support, India allocated four times more support to fossil fuels than to clean energy in FY 2022, a reduction from FY 2021 when fossil fuel support was nine times greater.
