JSW Infrastructure approves ₹2,359 crore for capacity expansion at ports
JSW Infrastructure, as part of its growth plan, invests ₹2,359 crore in the capacity expansion of Jaigarh and Dharamtar Ports.
The second-largest private commercial port operator in India, JSW Infrastructure Limited, a division of the JSW Group, is approves a capital investment of ₹2,359 crore to increase the capacity of its ports in Jaigarh and Dharamtar. This choice is in line with the company’s growth strategy for FY2030, which calls for increasing overall capacity from the present 170 million tonnes per year (MTPA) to 400 MTPA.
The authorised expansion plan will add 21 MTPA at Dharamtar Port and 15 MTPA at Jaigarh Port, for a total capacity increase of 36 MTPA. Jaigarh Port’s capacity will increase from 55 MTPA to 70 MTPA as a result of this expansion, while Dharamtar Port’s capacity would increase from 34 MTPA to 55 MTPA. As the anchor client, the proposed 5 MTPA steel-making facility at Dolvi, Maharashtra, is expected to be the main driver of the expansion’s need to accommodate higher cargo volumes.
In order to build more berths, the capital expenditure plan involves extensive mechanical, civil, and electrical construction in addition to additional infrastructure, such as a railway siding at Jaigarh Port to facilitate the movement of cargo by other organisations. It’s anticipated that the development at both ports will result in an extra 27 MTPA of cargo handling capacity.
By March 2027, the extensions’ construction is anticipated to be done, improving JSW Infrastructure’s capacity to meet rising trade demands and making a substantial contribution to the development of India’s port infrastructure.
