Kandla port and SIPC Kandla
=====================
Kandla Port is located in the Kutch area of Gujarat, a major manufacturing state. Kandla port is a deep sea port and India's largest cargo port. Kandla Port Trust also has the largest land bank among 12 major ports. KPT wants to develop the land on the landlord port model— under which, infra and regulation remain with Port Authorities and right to service is auctioned to the private sector.
Major Port Authority bill 2016 allows major ports to use the landlord model. It brings in the private sector in a transparent manner and helps major ports to grow in a competitive environment.
KPT's strong industrial policy has led to huge windfalls. Rents have skyrocketed from Rs144/yr per A to Rs39000/yr per A. There is a new zeal for growth and competition. In particular, KPT wants to lease land to private industry so it will boost cargo traffic at Kandla port.
Sagarmala project encourages the development of industries that benefit from short logistics, shipping, and inland waterways. KPT plans to build complementary infra like port development, multi-modal logistic parks and a smart township.
