Maritime Infrastructure Regulation Global Sea Power Smart Ports

Published

India is rapidly transforming its entire maritime ecosystem under the frameworks of the Maritime India Vision 2030 and the Amrit Kaal Vision 2047, targeting a major port capacity of 1,630 million tonnes per annum alongside smart, carbon-neutral transit hubs. Three pivotal 2025 laws, the Merchant Shipping Act, the Indian Ports Act, and the Coastal Shipping Act, have fully restructured domestic maritime regulations, aligned port safety protocols with international green standards, and driven a 118 percent surge in coastal cargo traffic. Major projects like Maharashtra’s natural deep-draft Vadhavan Port and the Galathea Bay Transshipment Hub in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands are strategically being built to systematically end India’s reliance on foreign transshipment ports like Colombo and Singapore. On the technological front, the Sagarmala Digital Centre of Excellence is actively embedding artificial intelligence and blockchain logistics into a Virtual Trade Corridor under the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor. Concurrently, to ensure domestic supplies for the kharif summer season amidst El Nino demand revisions, the government has issued its second global tender for 70 lakh tonnes of urea, navigating steep global price hikes that have reached up to 947 dollars per tonne.
