DP World wins bid for India’s Deendayal Port

06 Feb 2023 CW Team

A significant concession has been awarded to DP World to build, run, and maintain the mega- container terminal at Gujarat's Deendayal port on India's west coast.

The project entails establishing a public-private partnership to build a mega-container terminal at Tuna-Tekra (PPP). The terminal, when finished, will have a 1,100-meter berth and be able to handle ships carrying more than 18,000 TEUs. 2.19 million TEUs will be the total capacity.

The Deendayal Port Authority awarded the contract on a build-operate-transfer (BOT) basis.

Once finished, the terminal will support imports and exports from Northern, Western, and Central India, lowering transportation costs, and improving supply chain efficiencies. This will boost India's future container traffic growth. The project will support government initiatives like the PM Gati Shakti Master Plan and National Logistics Policy, which were designed to put more emphasis on creating a multimodal logistics infrastructure that supports economic growth.

The significant investments made by DP World in Indian ports and terminals are in line with Vision 2047, a plan by the Indian government to triple the nation's port handling capacity.
