Mundra Port
Mundra Port (UN/LOCODE INMUN), on the Gulf of Kutch in Gujarat, is India’s largest port by cargo volume — a modern, deep-draught gateway operated within the Adani Ports (APSEZ) network, serving northern and western India with fast links to the Gulf.
Why Mundra matters
Mundra’s deep draught, efficient handling and strong rail connectivity into the northern Indian hinterland make it the leading gateway for exporters in Gujarat, Delhi-NCR, Rajasthan and Punjab — and a faster-growing alternative to the Mumbai ports.
As India’s largest port by volume, Mundra offers dense sailing schedules and broad carrier choice, especially on the westbound lanes to the Gulf, Red Sea and Europe.
Cargo & connectivity
Mundra handles containers, dry bulk, liquid and project cargo across dedicated terminals, and connects inland via road, rail and the Western Dedicated Freight Corridor — so cargo from north India rails directly to the quay. Containerised exports include textiles, agricultural products, chemicals, engineering goods and general merchandise.
Mundra to the Gulf
Mundra sits closer to the Gulf than the Mumbai ports, so the Mundra → Jebel Ali container lane typically runs around 4–6 days with frequent weekly sailings. Mundra also serves Jeddah, Dammam, Sohar and other Gulf ports across the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Oman.
