JSW Infrastructure Eyes 400 MTPA Capacity by 2030 With Zero Net Debt

JSW Infrastructure Limited (JSWIL), a key player in the JSW Group, is charting a transformative course in India’s ports and logistics sector. With a bold target to achieve a cargo-handling capacity of 400 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) by FY30, the company is solidifying its position as a leader in the industry.

Strategic Investments for Capacity Expansion

JSWIL plans a capital expenditure of ₹30,000 crores between FY25 and FY30. The investment focuses on both brownfield and greenfield projects, including:

• Brownfield enhancements at Jaigarh, Dharamtar, and Goa ports.
• Greenfield developments at Jatadhar, Keni, and Murbe.
• Logistics integration through acquisitions like Navkar Corporation and a slurry pipeline project to offer end-to-end logistics solutions.

Diversifying Cargo Base for Resilience

Traditionally benefiting from JSW Group companies, JSWIL has diversified significantly, with third-party cargo contributing 48% in 1HFY25, compared to just 5% in FY19. The company aims for a 50:50 balance between group and third-party customers, ensuring operational stability and profitability.

Sustainability at the Core

Committed to combating climate change, JSWIL has pledged to achieve net neutrality by 2050. The company’s focus on sustainable practices underlines its dedication to environmentally responsible growth.
