1. Shipping Corp of India
Rounding out our list of the largest shipping companies in India is, by our methodology, the largest of them all. Founded in 1961 and based in Mumbai, the Shipping Corporation of India was initially two different companies; Western Shipping Corporation and Eastern Shipping Corporation; which were ultimately merged into one. The company has made a name for itself by offering a range of services spanning bulk carrier and tanker services, offshore activities, and liner and passenger services. With a workforce of over 3,000 employees operating through 79 different ports, Shipping Corp has generated significant attention both domestically and abroad. Major clients include the Indian Oil Corporation, the Steel Authority of India, Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd., Shell, British Gas, Tata Tea, and many others. As the fourth-largest shipping firm in terms of market cap and the largest in both revenue and assets, there’s no denying the Shipping Corporation of India’s rightful place atop our list of the largest shipping companies in India.
