JNPT to expand trade and development activities

The Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT) in Navi Mumbai is in the process of expanding its capacity five-fold in the next eight to 10 years. This is apart from its major projects such as setting up of a special economic zone (SEZ) in a public private partnership. For this, the company is in the process of floating a tender, seeking eligible partners for dredging of the channel up to 14 m at Rs 1,600 crore in the next two years.Contact: JNPT.  Tel: 022-2724 2290.
