APSEZ Studies ₹76,200 Cr Vadhvan Port Project
Imagine a new, giant port being built near Palghar, India, called Vadhvan.
It's a massive project costing a lot of money!
The company APSEZ is interested in helping build it.
This new port is designed to handle lots of shipping containers, like those used to transport goods around the world.
It's being built because India wants to increase its shipping capacity significantly by 2047.
APSEZ also plans to make their current ports bigger to handle even more containers.
The first part of the port is expected to be ready by 2030, handling a large amount of containers.
Adani Ports & Special Economic Zone (APSEZ) is studying the ₹76,200 crore Vadhvan port project in Maharashtra.
The greenfield container port is planned near Palghar.
The port's total capacity is 24.5 million TEUs.
Phase-1 is expected to handle about 6.85 million TEUs by 2030.
APSEZ aims to expand capacity at its ports, focusing on container cargo.
