Major ports log annual growth rate of 4.3% in cargo handling in FY25

13 May 2025 Evaluate

Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways in its latest release has said that India’s major ports have consistently demonstrated remarkable progress over the past decade, with FY 2024-25 emerging as a milestone year in terms of cargo handling, operational efficiency, and infrastructure modernisation.

It noted that in FY 2024-25, major ports registered an impressive annual growth rate of 4.3% in cargo handling, increasing from 819 million tonnes in FY 2023-24 to around 855 million tonnes in FY 2024-25. This growth highlights the resilience and capacity of major ports in accommodating rising trade volumes. The increase in traffic was driven by higher container throughput (10%), fertilizer cargo handling (13%), POL cargo handling (3%), and handling of miscellaneous commodities (31%) compared to the previous fiscal year.

Among commodities handled at major ports, petroleum, oil, and lubricants (POL) - including crude, petroleum products, and LPG/LNG - led the charts with a volume of 254.5 million tonnes (29.8%), followed by container traffic at 193.5 million tonnes (22.6%), coal at 186.6 million tonnes (21.8%), and other cargo categories such as iron ore, pellets, fertilizers, and more in FY 2024-25.
