India has eased coal import targets for utilities owned by state governments and private companies, according to an internal notice reviewed by Reuters.

India's power ministry has asked state government-run utilities and private power producers to assess the amount of coal needed to be imported for blending, according to an Aug. 1 notice issued to officials at top utilities.

The ministry said in May it would cut domestic fuel supply to state government-run utilities if they do not import 10% of their overall requirements to blend with local coal.
