The dry bulk segment comprises two Capesize vessels, 10 Kamsarmax vessels, one Ultramax and two Supramax vessels, aggregating three point two four million (mn) deadweight tonnage (dwt). Fleet metrics will continue to be reviewed alongside commercial chartering activity and market conditions.

The company has concurrently contracted to acquire one secondhand Medium Range Tanker and has contracted to sell its Medium Range Tanker Jag Pankhi, with completion of these transactions expected in Q1 FY27. These moves form part of a fleet renewal and optimisation strategy aimed at maintaining trade flexibility across oil and dry bulk markets. The purchases and disposals were noted in corporate disclosures filed with market regulators. Regulatory filings detail the contractual terms and the sequence of delivery and handover.

The delivery was recorded in Mumbai on 13 May 2026 and the company provided contact details for further information.
