India’s cargo handling capacity is poised for strong growth, with port volumes projected to rise at a CAGR of 10.80% from 1,540 MMT in FY24 to 2,849 MMT by FY30, driven by expanding trade activity and infrastructure development. Gujarat, a key maritime hub with one major port (Deendayal Port, Kandla) and 48 minor ports, is expected to outpace national growth with cargo volumes increasing from 317.20 MMT to 720 MMT over the same period, at a CAGR of 17.50%. The state’s minor ports are strategically positioned to handle specialized cargo such as coal and minerals, complementing India’s 7,516.6 km coastline, 12 major ports, and 217 minor ports. Backed by liberalization-led trade expansion, strong port infrastructure, and a strategic location in global shipping routes, India’s logistics sector spanning transportation, warehousing, and supply chain solutions remains a critical enabler of economic growth and a beneficiary of rising global supply chain integration.
