Set a tier's days to 0 to mean “all remaining days”.

Mundra terminals publish scale-of-rates documents with slab-wise ground rent per TEU. The example slabs are typical of Gujarat-coast terminals — verify against the current SOR for your terminal (CT1–CT4/AICTPL).

Mundra is India's largest commercial port by cargo volume — a privately developed Adani port whose container terminals each publish a scale of rates (SOR) covering ground rent, handling and ancillaries. Once an import box exceeds its free days, slab-wise ground rent per TEU accrues daily, and at Mundra's import volumes the yard is managed to keep dwell short.

About Mundra Port Container Storage Calculator

The defaults (3 free days, then ₹450/₹900/₹1,800 slabs, two TEU — i.e., one 40' box) model a typical Gujarat-coast structure. Mundra hosts multiple terminals with separate SORs, so confirm which terminal worked your vessel before auditing an invoice; the rates differ between them more than most shippers expect. Mundra's hinterland is rail-heavy — a large share of boxes move inland by double-stack train to NCR ICDs. If your container is rail-bound, the dwell math changes: the box may transfer to railhead custody quickly, and storage continues under the ICD's tariff instead. Track which custodian held the box each day; mixed invoices that double-count the handover day are a known audit catch.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I find Mundra's official storage rates?+

Each terminal's scale of rates (SOR) — published on the Adani Ports/terminal websites. Identify your terminal from the IGM or arrival notice, pull its current SOR, and enter the ground-rent slabs here. As a private major port, Mundra's rates are market-set rather than TAMP-administered, so check the document's effective date.

How do free days at Mundra compare with JNPT?+

Broadly similar bands (around 3 free days for import ground rent is common at both), but Mundra's private-terminal SORs revise faster than the legacy framework at older ports. Treat any remembered figure as stale — the current SOR PDF is the only number that matters for an invoice audit.

My box moved to an NCR ICD by rail — who bills storage?+

Sequentially: the Mundra terminal until rail handover, the railway/ICD operator after. Each custodian bills its own dwell under its own tariff. Audit the handover date on both invoices — the same calendar day appearing on both is the classic double-count, worth a few hundred rupees per TEU every time it happens.

Does Mundra offer Direct Port Delivery?+

Yes — eligible importers (AEO and select categories) can take delivery directly from the terminal within the DPD window, skipping CFS shift and its ground rent entirely. The catch is the short pickup window: DPD boxes not cleared in time revert to a designated CFS, often with shift charges on top. DPD pays off in proportion to your clearance reliability.
