NMDC has reduced the prices of iron ore by Rs 400 and also reduced the price of Direct Reduced Caliberated Lump Ore (DRCLO) by Rs 470 a tonne. 

This is the second price cut by the company in about 40 days. NMDC had earlier reduced the price of iron ore by Rs 500 per tonne and DRCLO by Rs 580 on April 4, taking the total price reduction in the two commodities to Rs 900 per tonne and Rs 1,050 per tonne, respectively.
