Four Adani Ports have ranked in the top 100 of the Container Port Performance Index 2023, showcasing their operational excellence. APSEZ also received high marks from CDP for its climate and ESG efforts.

Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Limited (APSEZ) announced on Wednesday that four of its ports have been listed in the prestigious 'Container Port Performance (CPP) Index 2023', developed by the World Bank and S&P Global Market Intelligence. This index is a significant benchmark that evaluates port performance based on parameters like productivity, efficiency, and reliability. 

Mundra port achieved the highest ranking among the APSEZ ports, securing the 27th position. Kattupalli, Hazira, and Krishnapatnam ports were ranked 57th, 68th, and 71st respectively in the top 100 list. Ashwani Gupta, CEO and Whole Time Director of APSEZ, expressed pride in this achievement, stating, "It reaffirms our position as a key player in the global container port industry. This accomplishment is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team as well as our ongoing commitment to deliver exceptional service to our customers."

The CPP Index is widely regarded in the industry as a reference point for national governments, port authorities, development agencies, supra-national organizations, and private operators in trade, logistics, and supply chain services. 

In total, nine ports from India made it to the top 100 list, with four of them being part of the Adani portfolio. This underscores APSEZ's commitment to operational efficiency and world-class service standards.

Furthermore, Adani Ports was recently recognized by CDP (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project) for its outstanding efforts in tackling climate change and implementing best Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices. The global non-profit organization assigned APSEZ a leadership band "A-" in both climate change and supplier engagement.

Adani Ports operates seven strategically located ports and terminals on the western coast and eight ports and terminals on the eastern coast of India. These ports handle 27 percent of the country's total port volumes, highlighting APSEZ's significant role in the Indian maritime sector.
