Mundra Port

Mundra Port is India's largest port by cargo volume — handling ~155 million tonnes of cargo annually as of 2024, surpassing JNPT's ~120 million tonnes. Operated entirely by Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Limited (APSEZ), Mundra Port is the flagship asset of the Adani Group's port empire and the engine of the broader Mundra Special Economic Zone (the largest SEZ in India).

Located on the Gulf of Kutch in western Gujarat, Mundra was developed greenfield in the late 1990s by the Adani Group on land acquired from the Gujarat government. First commercial cargo handling: 2001. The port currently has 14 multi-cargo berths totalling 19 km of quay length, supporting Capesize bulk carriers + 18,000 TEU container vessels + LNG carriers.

Key infrastructure: 4 dedicated container terminals (Adani International Container Terminal-ICTPL, Container Terminal MICT, Adani CMA CGM Mundra Terminal, etc.), 6 dry-bulk berths, 3 liquid-cargo berths, 1 LNG terminal, 1 dedicated coal berth. The port's deep approach channel (-17 m) makes it among the deepest-draft Indian ports.

The port is the Indian entry point for ~30% of India's coastal-trade liquid cargo, ~25% of dry bulk, and significant container traffic. It serves as the operational hub for Adani-controlled Mundra SEZ — which houses petrochemical, edible oil, and power-generation industries clustered around the port.
