Motherson, APSEZ To Build Auto Export Hub At Dighi Port

Motherson, through its joint venture Samvardhana Motherson Hamakyorex Engineered Logistics (SAMRX), has signed an agreement with Dighi Port (DPL), a subsidiary of Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone (APSEZ), to develop a dedicated automobile export facility at Dighi Port in Maharashtra.

The partnership will position Dighi Port as a new export terminal for vehicle manufacturers in the Mumbai–Pune auto belt. As one of APSEZ’s 15 strategic ports, Dighi is poised to expand its capacity to support India’s growing automotive sector under the Make in India initiative, enabling smoother export and import flows for global markets.

Ashwani Gupta, CEO and Whole-Time Director of Adani Ports and SEZ, said the collaboration represents a major step in transforming automotive logistics across the country. “By combining APSEZ’s integrated infrastructure with Motherson’s expertise, we are creating a seamless, resilient network for vehicle movement. This RoRo terminal will accelerate trade, enhance supply chain efficiency, and deliver long-term value to customers and communities,” he said.
