AM/NS India was recently granted exemption to import 71,500 tonnes of LAM coke from Poland, while JSW’s Indonesian cargoes were denied.
India’s government is cautious about imports from Indonesia due to concerns over rerouted Chinese-origin coke.
AM/NS imports were seen as lower risk geopolitically, while JSW’s were flagged.
AM/NS highlighted potential operational disruptions and investment delays, strengthening its case.
JSW’s plea was rejected by the Delhi High Court, citing prior knowledge of curbs.
Legal, geopolitical, and strategic considerations possibly shaped the contrasting outcomes.
