The Vadhvan Port Project Ltd, poised to become India’s largest port, plans to raise up to ₹300 billion in debt, offering a substantial investment opportunity. Managed by the Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority, it aims for operational status by the decade’s end, significantly enhancing India’s maritime infrastructure and global trade capabilities.
On June 16, 2025, Vadhvan Port Project Ltd. (VPPL) launched three initiatives to boost skill development and economic empowerment in the region. Attended by Maharashtra’s Chief Minister, Devendra Fadnavis, the event saw the introduction of a Custom Documentation course and a financial scheme for local die makers, enhancing community growth.
The Indian government has formed a three-member group of ministers (GOM) led by Piyush Goyal to evaluate the environmental impact of the ₹76,220 crore Vadhvan Port Project. This group will assess a report from the National Environmental Engineering Research Institute (NEERI) to address concerns raised by environmental groups.
