Adani Ports secures LoA for development of two dry bulk berths at Paradip port in Odisha
Sep-09-2026

Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone (APSEZ) has emerged as the highest bidder and received the Letter of Award (LoA) for the development and operation of two dry bulk berths at Paradip port in Odisha. The addition of 18 million metric tonnes (MMT) of new capacity will take APSEZ’s total domestic portfolio to 671 MMT, advancing its target of reaching 1 billion tonnes of cargo throughput by 2030.

Under the 30-year concession project to be executed under the Public-Private Partnership model, APSEZ will develop CQ-I and CQ-II berths with state-of-the-art mechanized cargo handling systems, deep-draft berths and large-scale storage infrastructure.

Located in a mineral-rich hinterland amid major steel plants, Paradip is India’s second-largest major port and a vital bulk cargo gateway. The Paradip terminal will boost APSEZ’s capacity to handle rising volumes of coal, limestone, and other dry bulk commodities, while expanding its reach across core industrial and manufacturing clusters in eastern and central India.

Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone is the largest commercial ports operator in India accounting for nearly one-fourth of the cargo movement in the country.
