JSW Infrastructure Ltd, India’s second-largest private port operator, has been awarded a significant project by the Syama Prasad Mookerjee Port Authority for the reconstruction and mechanization of Berths 7 and 8 at Netaji Subhas Dock, Kolkata.

The ₹740 crore project will be executed on a Design, Build, Finance, Operate, and Transfer (DBFOT) basis under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model and comes with a 30-year concession.
