Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd. (APSEZ) reported a historic operational performance for May 2025, handling 41.8 MMT of cargo, a 17% YoY increase — the highest ever for a single month.

For the YTD FY26 (up to May), APSEZ managed 79.3 MMT, marking a 10% YoY increase. Container traffic continued to lead with a robust 21% YoY surge, signaling APSEZ’s increasing dominance in India’s EXIM container trade.
