According to Mr RK Sharma secretary general of the Federation of Indian Mineral Industries, India's iron ore exports are expected at 85 million tonnes to 90 million tonnes in 2011/12, 10.5% below an earlier forecast.

In late June, he had projected exports at 90-95 million tonnes for the year ending next March, saying this would be about the same as last year.

India the world's No 3 iron ore supplier after Australia and Brazil normally exports around half its production, mostly to China. Exports have been hit by a ban from Karnataka state.
