Adani Krishnapatnam Port Ltd. (AKPL) has achieved two significant milestones in September 2025, solidifying its position as one of India’s most efficient multipurpose ports. The first milestone was reached when the port discharged 61,500 metric tons (MT) of iron ore in just 24 hours for JSW Steel. This operation, which involved the vessel MV Eurybia, set a new benchmark in bulk cargo handling performance. The successful completion of this task was made possible by AKPL’s advanced mechanization, yard logistics, and effective manpower coordination.

The second milestone marked AKPL’s entry into a new cargo segment, as it handled its first-ever rock phosphate shipment. The port imported 13,100 MT of rock phosphate for Blue Phosphate Ltd via the vessel MV Glamor. This achievement not only diversifies AKPL’s commodity portfolio but also demonstrates the port’s ability to adapt to new cargo segments. Both milestones showcase AKPL’s strategic focus on operational agility and customer-oriented growth, aligning with Adani Ports & SEZ’s broader vision of strengthening India’s maritime infrastructure.

These achievements further cement AKPL’s role as a high-performance hub on India’s East Coast, serving various industries such as steel, energy, fertilizer, and bulk commodities. The port’s ability to handle large volumes of cargo efficiently and effectively has made it an attractive destination for businesses looking to import and export goods. With its advanced infrastructure and commitment to operational excellence, AKPL is well-positioned to continue playing a vital role in India’s maritime trade. The port’s entry into new cargo segments and its ability to handle diverse types of cargo will also contribute to its growth and expansion in the future. Overall, AKPL’s milestones in September 2025 demonstrate its capabilities as a world-class multipurpose port and its potential for future growth and development.
