THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY India Port Situation Update as of Friday, May 15, 2020 1. Mumbai: Media reports that container freight stations (CFS) are considering waiving up to 50 percent of ground rent charges to importers who have yet to collect cargo that arrived during April 1-15. This is in response to numerous notices from Customs asking CFSs to comply with a Shipping Ministry directive asking all ports to waive port usage charges due to delays caused by the lockdown. According to local reports, cargo volumes processed in India’s 12 state-owned major ports fell 21 percent in April 2020 to 47 million tons, from 60 million tons during the same period a year ago. In Mumbai, Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT) and Mumbai Port Trust experienced a 34 and 18 percent decline in cargo volume in April 2020, respectively. The COVID-19 situation provides India an opportunity to improve the efficiency of ports and attract greater international cargo traffic, and some analysts believe that the recently introduced Major Port Authorities Bill 2020, which would provide greater autonomy to ports, could be the first step in such an effort.
