The Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways (MoPSW) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) to establish a Digital Centre of Excellence (DCoE) for India’s maritime sector. The initiative aims to accelerate digital transformation across ports and shipping through advanced IT solutions, promote innovation, and support the sector’s modernisation. As part of its digitalisation push, the Government has launched the SAGAR SETU platform to enhance operational efficiency, productivity, and ease of doing business across Indian ports. The platform facilitates seamless EXIM (Export-Import) services by significantly reducing vessel and cargo documentation time through quicker, paperless processes.

To ensure consistency and transparency in port pricing, the Government has also introduced a standardised Scale of Rates (SOR) template for all Major Ports. This will unify the structure and definitions of port services, creating a clear and consistent tariff framework across the sector. This information was provided by Union Minister for ports, shipping and waterways, Sarbananda Sonowal, in a written reply to the Rajya Sabha.
