GMB Schedule of Rates
About Gujarat Maritime Board
GMB regulates and operates 49 ports along Gujarat's 1,600 km coastline — the longest among Indian states. Major ports include Kandla (now Deendayal), Mundra (private), Pipavav, Hazira, Magdalla, Sikka, Salaya, Veraval, Porbandar. GMB's published SoPC covers operational tariffs (per-tonne wharfage, per-day berthing fees, anchorage charges, storage rates, pilotage by vessel size) — these are revenue-side rates, not civil construction. GMB civil construction (jetty extensions, breakwaters, deepening dredging, terminal civil) is tendered with project-specific BoQs derived from Gujarat R&B Civil SOR (2022-23, already covered) plus marine-specific premia. Port tariffs are listed here for completeness; civil works default to the parent R&B doc.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the GMB SoPC a civil-construction SOR?
No. SoPC = Schedule of Port Charges, which is operational tariffs (wharfage, berthing, anchorage, storage, pilotage). Civil construction at GMB ports follows Gujarat R&B Civil SOR + marine-specific premia in tender BoQs.
How frequently is SoPC updated?
Annually with WPI-indexed adjustments. The 2025 edition (effective 01-May-2025) is current. Wholesale Price Index drives the annual revision per a notification framework.
What's the largest GMB port?
Deendayal Port (Kandla) is the largest by cargo. Mundra Port (privately operated by Adani Ports) is the largest by container traffic on the Gujarat coast. Both have substantial civil works programmes.
Where do I find civil-works BoQs?
Major port civil tenders are on gmbports.org/tenders. Each tender carries its full BoQ. Civil rates derive from Gujarat R&B Civil SOR plus marine premia for offshore working windows, weather, vessel-based mobilisation.
