The Kandla Deendayal Port Authority (KDPA) has achieved its goal of handling 150 MnT of cargo in the financial year 2024–25, marking a key operational milestone. The update was confirmed by Chairperson Sushil Kumar Singh.

The final figure stood at 150.16 MnT , and Singh credited the achievement to the collaborative involvement of stakeholders, including exporters, importers, shipping and customs agents.

KDPA collected suggestions from port users and swiftly implemented changes to boost productivity and efficiency, addressing operational bottlenecks within existing constraints.

Singh emphasised the role of stakeholder feedback in identifying key challenges: “Inputs were taken at face value and integrated quickly into our processes.”

He also highlighted the port’s strategic focus on methanol bunkering and low-carbon fuels, aligning with India’s broader maritime ambitions. “Kandla is well-positioned along international trade routes to become a leader in green fuel solutions,” he said.

The achievement reflects KDPA’s growing role in India's maritime infrastructure and its commitment to sustainability and service innovation.
