India plans to develop six port clusters into Mega Ports by 2047 under the Maritime Amrit Kaal Vision, 2047.
Four port clusters—Cochin-Vizhinjam, Galathea South Bay, Chennai-Kamarajar-Cuddalore, and Paradip along with other non-major ports—will have a combined capacity of over 300 MTPA. Two larger clusters—Deendayal-Tuna Tekra and Jawaharlal Nehru-Vadhavan—will exceed 500 MTPA in capacity.
The capacity expansion and infrastructure upgrades at major ports are already in progress through Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) and internal funding.
