In June alone, the company handled the highest ever monthly cargo of 31.88 MT, registering a 12 per cent year-on-year (y-o-y) growth, APSEZ said in a statement. “This also marks the highest ever cargo handled in a quarter at 90.89 MMT (million tonne) during Q1 FY23, which is 16 per cent q-o-q growth, and 8 per cent y-o-y growth over a strong Q1 FY22 that saw the post COVID volume surge,” it said.
Coal volumes continue to show strong recovery of 25 per cent year-on-year (y-o-y). Other key segments that lead this monthly surge are crude (17 per cent) and container (6 per cent).
