# State-owned NMDC and SAIL will report no material earnings benefit from India's MMDR Amendment Bill in their Q2 and Q3 FY27 results, despite investor enthusiasm.

- **Made:** 13 Aug 2026
- **By:** David Lee
- **Outcome:** Unresolved

The bill only restricts future state levies pending a central cap yet to be notified, and explicitly shields already-collected dues from refund, so Jharkhand's ₹400-per-tonne iron-ore levy on SAIL and any Karnataka-style charges on NMDC keep flowing until the executive rules actually land.
