EY-FICCI Report Calls for 10-Year Vessel Procurement Pipeline to Boost Indian Shipbuilding
A joint EY-FICCI report recommends India establish a structured 10-year vessel procurement pipeline to boost its domestic shipbuilding and ship-repair sectors. Despite India’s strategic location, its share in global shipbuilding and repair markets remains below 1%, with fluctuating commercial shipbuilding output. The report suggests consolidating vessel requirements from public and private sectors, standardizing vessel designs, and implementing regular procurement programs to improve productivity, encourage investment, and enhance financing access, addressing fleet renewal and coastal shipping demands.
