Adani Group controlled Dhamra Port Company Limited (DPCL) off the coast of north Odisha recorded 4.8 per cent de-growth in its cargo volume in last financial year as exports shrank and import traffic stagnated. The port handled a total traffic of 14.66 million tonne (mt) in last financial year as against 15.4 mt logged in FY15. The overall traffic consisted of 13.9 mt of imports and the rest exports. Dhamra port handled 187 vessels during the last financial year. Since, iron ore exports from Odisha have trickled to negligible level, the Dhamra port has been struggling to operate at its full rated capacity of 25 mt. imports of limestone and coal have been the key drivers to the port’s traffic.
