The Chennai Port Authority (ChPA) has launched the Non-Containerized Cargo Incentive Scheme (NCCS) 2026-27, offering wharfage concessions of up to 80 per cent and loyalty bonus of up to 10 per cent for eligible customers.

The scheme aims to attract additional cargo traffic, reward customer loyalty and strengthen long-term partnerships with trade and industry. The scheme covers Liquid Bulk (excluding POL Crude and POL Products), Dry Bulk and Break Bulk cargo, including both Coastal and EXIM cargo handled through Port-operated berths, says a release.

Designed to reward growth and encourage new business, the scheme provides attractive incentives for both existing and new customers routing cargo through Chennai Port. Through NCCS 2026-27, ChPA aims to promote higher cargo throughput, improve ease of doing business and reinforce Chennai Port’s position as a preferred gateway for non-containerized cargo on the East Coast of India, the release said.

The Authority invites the trade community to partner with the Port through long-term cargo commitments. It is also open to entering into mutually beneficial Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with interested trade partners to facilitate cargo growth and create enduring business relationships, the release said.

With incentives of up to 80 per cent on wharfage charges on eligible incremental cargo volume, loyalty benefits for existing customers and partnership opportunities for future growth, Chennai Port Authority invites the trade community to be part of its next phase of expansion, says the release.
