Adani Ports Logs 16% Cargo Surge in February, Handles 42.5 MMT on Container, Dry Bulk Strength

Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd (APSEZ) posted strong operational numbers for February 2026, handling 42.5 million metric tonnes (MMT) of cargo, a 16% year-on-year jump driven by robust container and dry bulk flows.

Container volumes grew 14% year-on-year, while dry cargo rose 15%, underscoring sustained trade momentum across the group’s network of ports on India’s west and east coasts. Year-to-date (April 2025–February 2026), APSEZ moved 454.7 MMT of cargo, up 11% from the same period a year earlier, supported by a 20% rise in container traffic.

On the logistics side, rail cargo volumes touched 52,101 TEUs in February, a 3% increase, even as GPWIS (General Purpose Wagon Investment Scheme) volumes softened to 1.7 MMT, down 8% year-on-year.
