Mundra, 10 April 2026: Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone (APSEZ) continues to set new records in its various services. Recently, the Adani Ports Mundra Ro-Ro Terminal has achieved a new national record. The port successfully exported 6,008 cars in a single shipment on the MV NOCC ADRIATIC ship, creating the highest single-ship car export record in India. This achievement is an important milestone for the Indian automobile industry.
Experts in the shipping sector say that Ro-Ro vessels like MV NOCC ADRIATIC are designed to carry thousands of vehicles safely. These ships reduce loading time and help avoid damage. Global trade reports show that such ships are widely used in Europe and Asia for fast vehicle movement. This makes India more competitive in the global auto market.
During the last financial year, the Mundra Ro-Ro (Roll-in, Roll-out) Terminal exported more than 2,29,000 cars and made a significant contribution to the country’s automobile sector. This terminal has now become a key player for the Indian automobile industry. Through its Ro-Ro facility, Mundra Port can export vehicles to more than 100 countries across the world.
Industry reports from groups like SIAM show that India is one of the fastest-growing car export hubs. Cars made in India are now sent to markets in Africa, Latin America, and parts of Europe. Ports like Mundra play a key role because they reduce shipping time and cost for companies.
The advanced infrastructure and experienced operations team at Mundra Ro-Ro Terminal ensure highly efficient and special parking of vehicles inside the ships, along with timely and smooth handling. This national-level success has been possible because of the hard work and dedication of the port team.
Logistics experts often point out that proper vehicle stacking inside ships is very important. Even a small mistake can cause damage worth lakhs of rupees. Ports with trained teams and modern systems, like Mundra, help reduce such risks. This builds trust among automobile companies.
Established in 2009, the Mundra Ro-Ro Terminal today serves as the main gateway port for many automobile companies located in Delhi-NCR, Rajasthan, and Gujarat. The terminal operates 24 hours a day and manages the export of cars, buses, and trucks to various countries around the world.
Transport studies show that round-the-clock operations give ports a big advantage. Many global ports follow the same model to handle large volumes. For Indian manufacturers, this means faster delivery schedules and better planning for exports.
This terminal is unique in India as it is equipped with ultra-modern floating pontoon and link span systems. Because of this special arrangement, the terminal can work around the clock, and loading and unloading of vehicles can be done without any effect of sea tides. The terminal also has a buffer yard, vehicle parking facilities, and modern washing services for vehicles.
Marine engineering reports explain that floating pontoon systems help keep the platform stable even when water levels change. This ensures that vehicles can move smoothly without delay. Very few ports in India have this kind of advanced setup, which gives Mundra an edge.
With multi-modal connectivity, Mundra Port is known as India’s major economic gateway. It provides import-export facilities to the northern states and inland areas of the country. This port has state-of-the-art infrastructure for handling gas, liquid, container, dry cargo, steel cargo, and also has India’s largest coal import terminal. Mundra is India’s largest commercial port, which offers world-class services with fast cargo handling and minimum turnaround time.
Economic surveys highlight that strong rail and road links are key to a port’s success. Mundra connects directly to major industrial zones, which reduces transport costs. This helps Indian goods stay competitive in global markets.
With a customer-focused approach and continuous improvement in operational efficiency, Adani Ports has set many new benchmarks. These achievements of APSEZ show its ability to adapt quickly to changes and its strong commitment to sustainable growth.
Global sustainability reports also show that modern ports are now focusing on cleaner operations, better energy use, and reduced emissions. Companies like APSEZ are investing in greener practices, which is important for long-term growth and global partnerships.
