India eases rules at key ports as West Asia crisis continues

Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority has provided temporary transshipment storage for containers bound for West Asia.

Amid the escalating war in West Asia and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, India has offered relief to shipping and cargo owners, allowing stranded vessels to temporarily dock at its ports at reduced charges, including anchorage fee, berth hire, and storage charges, Rajesh Kumar Sinha, special secretary in the ministry of ports, shipping and waterways, said.

The Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA), which operates India's largest container port in Navi Mumbai, has provided temporary transshipment storage for containers bound for West Asia and given 100% rebate on ground rent and dwell time charges and about 80% rebate on reefer container plugin charges for up to 15 days for containers originating at JNPA, Sinha said.
