DP World secures terminal project with royalty bid

In a groundbreaking development for the port industry, DP World has stunned Deendayal Port Authority by placing an unprecedented royalty bid of Rs6,500 per TEU for the terminal project with a 2.19 million TEUs capacity.

Deendayal Port officials express astonishment, revealing that even a Rs1,000 per TEU royalty bid would have secured the project. Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd, the sole competitor last year, submitted a bid of Rs1,500 per TEU, deemed the most realistic.
