PSA Mumbai’s upgraded facilities include 2,000 meters of continuous quay length, enabling the terminal to simultaneously accommodate multiple mega container vessels. The project supports India’s increasing trade volumes for both domestic and global markets. Developed under a public-private partnership, the terminal represents PSA’s commitment of SGD 1.7 billion ($1.3 billion), making it the largest foreign direct investment from Singapore in India to date.
Since entering India in 1998, PSA has consistently expanded its footprint. Today, PSA India operates container terminals in Navi Mumbai and Chennai, container freight stations in Mumbai and Mundra through its subsidiary PSA Ameya, and works closely with its affiliate supply chain business PSA BDP. These facilities collectively provide services to multinational customers across various industries.
Ong Kim Pong, Group CEO of PSA International, said: “PSA Mumbai’s Phase 2 expansion brings together capacity, connectivity and sustainability in a terminal for India — a catalyst for advancing India’s trade ambitions. PSA Mumbai’s enhanced capacity of 4.8 million TEUs will reinforce the resilience of supply chains within and beyond India, and bolster PSA’s global network of port ecosystems.”
He added: “This milestone underscores the transformative power of purposeful collaboration between the public and private sectors to enhance global trade flows and uplift communities. Our partnership with the Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA) for PSA Mumbai exemplifies this commitment. Driven by this shared purpose, PSA is proud to partner India on its journey of transformational growth and progress.”
The terminal, constructed on 200 hectares of land, combines expanded yard capacity and multimodal infrastructure to strengthen India’s maritime connectivity. According to PSA, sustainability has been a core focus, with electrical equipment already powered by renewable energy and progressive plans for electrifying diesel-powered assets.
In January 2024, PSA Mumbai became India’s first fully renewable-powered container terminal following the commissioning of its 7.8MW solar farm developed with O2 Power. This milestone marked a significant step in the terminal’s emissions reduction strategy. The facility is projected to cut CO2 equivalent emissions by 16,000 tonnes annually, with a total reduction of more than 350,000 tonnes over its lifetime.
The second phase of PSA Mumbai demonstrates the company’s long-term vision to combine operational capacity with environmental responsibility. By enhancing infrastructure and embedding renewable energy, PSA is aligning its growth with sustainable development while supporting India’s position in global trade. The expansion also reinforces PSA’s role in building resilient supply chains across its international port ecosystem.
