About This Seaport
The Deendayal Port Authority runs India's highest-tonnage gateway from Kandla, a federal Major Port on Gujarat's Gulf of Kachchh that handled roughly 160 million tonnes in 2025/26. Eighteen berths – twelve dry-cargo berths plus six oil jetties across the Kandla, Tuna-Tekra and Vadinar terminals – keep the quays working around the clock. Liquid bulk dominates: crude oil and petroleum products account for about two-thirds of throughput, alongside fertiliser, edible oils, grain, salt, coal and steel. Container volumes are handled but remain secondary to neighbouring Mundra, with a dedicated box terminal under development. Rail and road corridors push cargo deep into North India, supplying Rajasthan, Punjab, Delhi and the NCR with fertiliser and fuels. Full customs clearance for import and export is available as at any federal Major Port. Shippers needing pure container capacity should weigh Mundra, while Nhava Sheva (JNPT) serves the southern west coast.
