Pipavav Port eyes recovery in containers; liquids & RoRo to boost market share
Gujarat Pipavav Port Ltd. is bracing for a gradual recovery in container volumes even as it continues to lose market share in the category due to tariff-related disruptions from the US. However, the company is strengthening its position in liquids, RoRo and fertiliser cargo, which are emerging as its key growth engines. The port’s container performance weakened in the first half of the year, primarily because of the fall in US-linked cargo. The Managing Director of the company, Girish Aggarwal, said, “I think, overall, in the first half (of this financial year) we are down by five per cent on the container volume, largely down in this quarter. Last quarter was broadly flat. This quarter, we declined by nine per cent essentially because of the US tariffs, where we’ve seen significant de-growth in some of the services.”
