PSA India hosted an exclusive customer engagement and networking session in New Delhi on 15 May, bringing together over 150 trade stakeholders, shippers, logistics partners, and industry leaders to highlight the capabilities of PSA Mumbai and its integration with the Western Dedicated Freight Corridor (WDFC). The event underscored PSA Mumbai’s role in strengthening multimodal connectivity and enabling faster, more efficient cargo movement between North India and global markets.
The session showcased PSA Mumbai’s direct integration with the WDFC, making it the only terminal at Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA) capable of handling 360-TEU double-stack container trains across six rail lines. The terminal is connected to more than 63 Inland Container Depots (ICDs) nationwide and has an annual rail handling capacity of up to 1.5 million TEUs.
Speaking at the event, PSA International Regional CEO for Middle East South Asia, Africa & Türkiye (MESAAT), Vincent Ng, said the terminal’s direct DFC connectivity marks a major milestone in strengthening India’s logistics ecosystem by enabling more efficient, reliable, and sustainable supply chains for businesses across North India.
The WDFC integration is expected to improve rail efficiency, reduce cargo transit timelines between Delhi and Mumbai, and provide exporters and importers with greater supply chain reliability and cost efficiencies. The initiative is also set to support enhanced rail-linked cargo movement and better international market access for industries across North India.
Ahead of the customer engagement session, PSA Mumbai and Container Corporation of India Limited (CONCOR) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to collaborate on rail-based cargo movement. The agreement aims to strengthen connectivity between PSA Mumbai and CONCOR’s network of more than 68 ICDs and domestic terminals across India.
The collaboration will focus on facilitating rail-based movement of domestic, cabotage, and customs-cleared containers, as well as operating scheduled container train services between PSA Mumbai and CONCOR terminals, subject to operational feasibility and regulatory approvals.
The partnership is expected to boost multimodal logistics connectivity, reduce road congestion, improve turnaround times, and support greener and more cost-efficient cargo movement across India’s supply chain network.
