Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone (APSEZ) is awarded a contract to develop two dry bulk berths at Paradip port in Odisha. NDTV reports that APSEZ receives a Letter of Award for the project.
The work is planned under a 30-year concession through a Public-Private Partnership model. The additional infrastructure is described as adding about 18 million metric tonnes (MMT) of dry bulk capacity. NDTV also states that the new berths increase APSEZ’s total cargo-handling capacity to 671 MMT.
Across the cited reports, the emphasis remains consistent on the award of the contract, the location and type of berths, and the concession structure. The sources do not present differing figures or competing claims about the decision, but rather repeat the same core details: the Paradip site, two dry bulk berths, the 30-year PPP concession, and the resulting capacity expansion.
