India is taking huge steps to boost its local shipbuilding industry. The Union Ministry of Shipping is working on a new policy to reduce reliance on foreign vessels while improving the country\u2019s share of global trade.<\/p>\n

The policy will give financial support, known as viability gap funding (VGF), to make domestic shipbuilding projects more feasible.<\/p>\n

The National Shipbuilding Mission will manage a \u20b918,000 crore financial support initiative, SBFAP 2.0, during the next 10 years. This program will help India develop more vessels for coastal, inland, and global trade.<\/p>\n

The government is also introducing a system under which vessels for coastal cargo transport must be manufactured in India and registered starting in FY31.<\/p>\n

The government is considering to establish a \u20b925,000 crore Maritime Development Fund (MDF) to provide low-cost loans for shipbuilding and infrastructure development.<\/p>\n

India\u2019s share in global shipbuilding is now less than 1%, but the government plans to increase it to 7% by 2030 and 69% by 2047.<\/p>\n

Experts agree that establishing a dedicated maritime fund will help India compete on a global scale while also strengthening and self-sufficiently developing its maritime sector.<\/p>\n
