Milestone! Way to go! More to come!

Container volumes at major ports in India recorded a growth of 8.84 per cent in terms of tonnage for the just concluded fiscal 2018-19, as per the figures released by the Indian Ports Association. While the overall cargo volumes handled by major ports grew only 2.9 per cent touching 699.04 million tonnes from 679.37 million tonnes in 2017-18, it was coal, fertilizers and containers that kept up the momentum in the month of March.

In line with the container growth, Navayuga Container Terminal reached a remarkable milestone in March, on March 27th to be precise, handling 500K TEUs. The terminal has come a long way from 58,577 TEU five years ago to the present gallop of half a million. With a growing terminal and yard capacity, equipment and reefer infrastructure, NCT is poised to spring more surprises in the years to come!
