3. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
The discussion and analysis hereunder covers Companys financial performance and business outlook for the year 2023 - 2024. This outlook is based on assessment of the current business environment and Government policies. The change in future economic and other developments are likely to cause variation in this outlook.
Economic Outlook:
The global economic outlook is showing signs of improvement, albeit with modest growth while tighter monetary conditions persist, global activity demonstrates resilience, with inflation falling faster than expected and private sector confidence on the rise. Labor market imbalances are easing, with unemployment remaining near record lows. Real incomes are beginning to improve as inflation moderates, and trade growth has shifted to positive territory. Global GDP is projected to grow by 3.2% in 2024 and 2025, consistent with the pace seen in 2023. Advanced economies are expected to experience a slight acceleration in growth, while emerging market and developing economies may see a modest slowdown. However, the long-term forecast for global growth, at 3.1% five years from now, is at its lowest in decades. Global inflation is expected to decline steadily, from 6.8% in 2023 to 5.9% in 2024 and 4.5% in 2025, with advanced economies reaching their inflation targets sooner than emerging market and developing economies.
In India, GDP growth is forecasted to reach 7.8% in FY 202324, followed by around 6.5% growth in each of the subsequent two fiscal years. Domestic demand will be bolstered by gross capital formation, mainly in the public sector, while private consumption growth is expected to remain subdued. Exports will maintain growth momentum, buoyed by foreign investment.
Headline inflation is anticipated to decline gradually, and foreign capital inflows into Indian stock markets are expected to persist. Additionally, there are indications of Indias increasing integration into global production networks, driven by trade in intermediary inputs and business services.
Industry Outlook:
Ports
Indian Scenario:
The overall cargo throughput at Indian ports has reached a new high, estimated at 1539 MMT (E) for the financial year ending March 31, 2024, marking a 7% growth over fY23. This growth is attributed to the revival in economic activity, increased demand and consumption of major commodities, and decreasing shipping freights. Indias coastal cargo has seen significant growth, with anticipation of a rise in the share of coastal cargo of coal to 42% by FY26.
Container volumes in India have shown a healthy CAGR of 6% from FY20-FY22, indicating a robust economic performance despite COVID-19-related challenges. Although container volumes remained flat at 3% in FY23, a strong recovery in EXIM trade is expected to drive healthy growth of 10% in FY24. However, disruptions in the Red Sea region have led to longer transit times and increased freight costs, prompting shipping liners to consider alternative routes. Going forward, growth in exports volume and stability on geopolitical conditions shall be key monitorable.
The launch of the Sagarmala Program has brought optimism for port-led area development, with the government envisioning 189 modernization projects involving an investment of 1.42 trillion (US$ 22 billion) by 2035. Additionally, several projects under the Sagarmala Programme are underway at non-major ports, with a significant portion being carried out through Public-Private Partnership (PPP) mode.
In 2024, the Union Minister of Ports, Shipping & Waterways and Mr. Sarbananda Sonowal, inaugurated major waterways projects in North East India, unveiling projects worth Rs. 308 crore (US$ 37.14 million) and announcing initiatives for improved connectivity and economic growth.
Overall, Increasing investment and cargo traffic point towards a healthy outlook for the Indian ports sector. Providers of services such as operation and maintenance (O&M), pilotage and harbouring and marine assets such as barges and dredgers are benefiting from these investments

4. RISK, OPPORTUNITY AND THREATS:
The outbreak of coronavirus provides a good opportunity for India to follow an export-driven model. The movement of companies away from China to other less-developed countries have triggered a new wave of industrialization in India. Consequently, the expansion of the manufacturing hub linked with global supply chains would increase demand for port industry.
The robust growth in overall cargo throughput at Indian ports, reaching a record 1539 MMT (E) for the financial year ending March 31,2024, reflects a 7% increase over FY23. This growth is fueled by the resurgence in economic activity, heightened demand for major commodities, and declining shipping costs.
Notably, there has been significant growth in Indias coastal cargo, with expectations of coal accounting for 42% of coastal cargo by FY26.
In terms of cargo commodities, thermal coal, iron ore, fertilizers, POL, and finished fertilizers have experienced an upward trend in shipments, contributing to an 8.9% growth in FY23. Despite sluggish volume growth in most commodities, major ports have managed to achieve modest overall cargo throughput growth.
Although container volumes in India exhibited a healthy CAGR of 6% from FY20-FY22, FY23 saw flat growth at 3%. However, a strong recovery in EXIM trade is anticipated to drive a robust 10% growth in FY24.
Geopolitical tensions and disruptions in sea regions directly impact cargo traffic at ports, leading to prolonged transit times and increased freight costs.
The company has implemented a formal risk assessment and management system, periodically identifying risk areas, evaluating their consequences, and implementing mitigation strategies and corrective actions as necessary. The company has made consistent progress in addressing specific risks and threats through cargo diversification, strategic port capacities, long-term customer contracts, operational efficiency enhancements, cost optimization, and integrated logistics services provision.
At the domestic level, new business opportunities are emerging, particularly in the natural gas sector and container traffic handling. With the increasing size of vessels, shipping liners prefer ports with deep drafts, longer quays, high mechanization, and robust infrastructure. The company is closely monitoring these market trends and preparing many projects to capitalize on such opportunities at the appropriate time.
Investments in port infrastructure and technology are crucial for enhancing efficiency, reducing turnaround times, and accommodating larger vessels. Implementing state-of-the- art equipment, automation, and digital solutions can optimize port operations, improve customer experience, and strengthen competitiveness in the global market. Furthermore, sustainable practices such as shore power facilities, emission reduction initiatives, and eco-friendly port designs are becoming increasingly important to meet environmental regulations and attract environmentally conscious customers.

The Company has put in place strong internal control systems and process to commensurate with its size and scale of operations. Some of the key features of the Companys internal control systems are:
- Adequate documentation of Financials, Company Policies and Guidelines.
- Preparation of Annual Budget plan through monthly review for all operating entities at Management level.
