MICT handles largest ship to call Indian port

The Mundra International Container Terminal (MICT) operated by DP World, witnessed the berthing of the largest ever container vessel to call any port in India. The APL Italy has a length of 334 m and with a carrying capacity of 8,402 TEU is also the largest APL vessel to call in India.

As one of the most sophisticated and technically advan­ced port facilities in the Indian Subcontinent, strategically located at Mundra port in the State of Gujarat, MICT is the closest gateway to the largest cargo generating regions of North and Northwest India. Open all year round with no tidal restrictions, MICT has an ability to handle some of the deepest container vessels afloat today. From handling 20,000 TEUs in its first year of operations, today MICT has developed the port into a million TEU port.
