In the financial year 2023, the average time before a cargo ship was berthed on a major port in India was just under one day. This was a slight increase compared to the previous year. In simple words, pre-berthing time was the time the ship or the vessel needed to wait before it could enter in the berth. The port sector of the South Asian country handled over 1.4 billion metric tons of cargo in 2023. A major portion of this cargo was handled by the major ports.

*The source uses the term average pre-berthing detention, meaning the average pre-berthing waiting time obtained by dividing the total pre-berthing waiting time of all cargo vessels sailed from the port during a period by the number of cargo vessels sailed during that period.
