India Carbon's primary business is the manufacture and supply of high quality Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC) which is the purest form of Carbon, containing over 99.5% of it. Along with the Calcined Coke the Company also specializes in the production of Electrode Carbon Paste (ECP) and Tamping Paste used widely in the Ferro Alloys and Allied industries and also in the production of Carbide. Both the Electrode Carbon Paste as well as the Tamping Paste are produced from a mixture of different carbonaceous material (CPC, Calcined Anthracite Coal, etc.) and Soft Pitch which is used as a binder.

The primary raw material used by ICL for its operations is Raw Petroleum Coke, frequently referred to as RPC which is purchased from Oil refineries all over the world. RPC itself is produced from the thermal cracking of crude.
