Insurance coverage is denied to shipping lines operating between countries facing sanctions

- Subhash Narayan

The Centre has begun consultations to set up India's first protection and indemnity (P&I) entity—to be called India Club—that will provide third-party insurance to Indian ships operating in the country's coastal region and inland waterways, said shipping secretary T.K. Ramachandran.

The plan is to get domestic companies to provide insurance cover to Indian ships, which now depend on global clubs for securing ships and cargoes, the secretary said in an interview.

The need for an India-focused P&I entity has also been felt to reduce the country's vulnerability to international sanctions and pressures where insurance coverage is denied to shipping lines operating between countries facing sanctions.

At present, third-party risks in the shipping sector are insured with the International Group of P&I Clubs, a 13-member group based in London that provides liability cover to over 90% of shipping lines globally.

Celebrating craft in all its forms

When the Mumbai store of Moonray, a four-year-old ready-to-wear label started by Karishma Swali and her daughter, Avantika, shut down a few months ago, it seemed like it would cease to exist. But last week, the same address in the cultural district of Kala Ghoda opened the doors to Chorus, a brand by the mother-daughter duo that expands the Moonray universe to include ready-to-wear, couture, skincare, and a café with craft at the centre.
