Exploration is where every mining story begins — and India's story has accelerated fast.
As part of 12 Years of Reforms, mineral exploration in the country has increased 200-fold since 2014, strengthening the foundation for a self-reliant mineral sector. The MMDR Amendment Act, 2026 builds on this momentum, bringing greater investment clarity to the sector.
Many milestones. One mission.

District Mineral Foundations have been transforming mining-affected areas — funding schools, healthcare, water conservation, and infrastructure for communities that need it most.
That commitment continues. DMF collections and project funding remain intact even as the MMDR Amendment Act, 2026 strengthens the broader mining sector.
Many milestones. One mission.

The MMDR Amendment Act, 2026 does not require State Governments to refund taxes already collected on mineral-bearing lands — a deliberate safeguard against administrative disruption and fiscal inconvenience.
Protecting States, preserving progress.

The Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Amendment Act, 2026 brings greater predictability to exploration, investment and production, turning mineral wealth into industrial growth and jobs for the state.
Karnataka's minerals. Karnataka's growth.

A reform-led mining ecosystem for a stronger, more self-reliant and Viksit Bharat.
