Indian major ports achieve increase in cargo traffic

Capt. John

India’s 12 major ports achieved a 5.65% increase in cargo handling to 60.07 million tonnes (MT) in April this fiscal year. This was mainly because of higher demand for coal, petroleum, oil and lubricants. These ports handled a total of 56.86 MT of cargo in April 2018.

Rising demand from various sectors, including coal, petroleum, oil and lubricant,and containers, was the main driver of the traffic growth, according to the Indian Ports Association (IPA).
