ICGS Adamya was commissioned by Shri Satyajit Mohanty, Joint Secretary (AF & Policy), Ministry of Defence, in the presence of Inspector General Yoginder Dhaka, Chief of Staff, Headquarters Eastern Seaboard, along with senior dignitaries from central and state government.

The vessel will be stationed at Paradip, Odisha, under operational and administrative control of the Commander, ICG Region (North East), via the Commander, ICG District Headquarters No. 7 (Odisha). Named ‘Adamya’, meaning ‘indomitable’, the ship reflects the Coast Guard’s commitment to secure, safe, and clean seas in India’s maritime interest. With a crew of five officers and 34 personnel, the ship will undertake maritime surveillance and other duties as per the ICG charter.

Displacing approximately 320 tonnes, ICGS Adamya is powered by two 3,000 KW diesel engines, achieving a maximum speed of 28 knots and an endurance of 1,500 nautical miles at economical speed. The vessel is the first to feature indigenously developed Controllable Pitch Propellers and gearboxes, offering superior manoeuvrability, operational flexibility, and enhanced sea performance.

Its armament includes a 30 mm CRN 91 gun and two 12.7 mm stabilised remote-controlled machine guns, supported by advanced fire control systems. The ship also integrates an Integrated Bridge System, Integrated Platform Management System, and Automated Power Management System, boosting operational efficiency and automation.
