As part of its ambitious FY2030 growth plan, JSW Infrastructure has approved a substantial ₹2,359 crore capital expenditure (capex) to significantly expand its port capacity. The goal is to increase the company’s total capacity from the current 170 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) to 400 MTPA. The approved expansion involves a total increase of 36 MTPA: 21 MTPA at Dharamtar Port and 15 MTPA at Jaigarh Port. The expansion plans include comprehensive mechanical, civil, and electrical work to construct new berths and enhance existing infrastructure. At Jaigarh Port, the expansion will also include the addition of railway siding to improve the movement of third-party cargo. Upon completion, Jaigarh Port’s capacity will be raised to 70 MTPA, up from its current 55 MTPA, and Dharamtar Port’s capacity will increase to 55 MTPA, from the current 34 MTPA. This expansion is primarily driven by the anticipated increase in cargo volume from a major customer linked to a new 5 MTPA steel-making facility being set up in Dolvi, Maharashtra. The overall expansion project is expected to generate an additional cargo handling volume of approximately 27 MTPA. Construction is slated to be completed by March 2027, marking a significant upgrade to the infrastructure and operational capabilities at both ports.
