1. Deep Natural Draft: Investment Outlook; The deep natural draft of the port Approx 15mts (one of the largest on western coast) Positives: allows for larger capacity vessels including very large crude carriers(VLCCs) and container vessels of 8000+TEUs (Twenty Foot Equivalent Units).

2. Northern Hinterland: The lower distance of Mundra port from north and north western Indian hinterland of approximately 300 kms as compared to & JNPT (Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust) is a very big advantage in terms of logistic costs and time saving. Also nearly 50% of India's trade in commodities comes from North And north-western states of , Punjab, , , Delh and Gujarat.

3. Infrastructure Development: The investments made in the space of infrastructure development especially in areas of Road and rail connectivity. Key areas are double stacking container trains which is available on the rail route connecting Mundra to hinterland and the proposed freight corridor between Mumbai and Delhi.

4. Strategic Tie-ups: The company has entered into strategic tie-ups with Indian Oi Corporation (IOC) for handling of crude oil at Mundra. Similarly the arrangement with Container Corporation of India Ltd and Mundra International Container Terminal Ltd will help in its railway facilities and container cargo operations ramp up.

5. SEZ notification: The company has already completed the acquisition of land for the SEZ and has received notification for the same.
