Kamarajar Port Limited (KPL), formerly Ennore Port Limited, is India’s 12th Major Port and the only corporatized major port, located on the east coast, 24 km north of Chennai.  As a pioneer in port corporatization and public-private partnership, KPL operates under the Landlord Port model, ensuring efficient asset management and enabling private sector participation in cargo handling and infrastructure.
Commissioned in June 2001, KPL has rapidly evolved into the Energy Port of South India, handling a diverse mix of cargo such as Coal, POL, Chemicals, Automobiles, Containers, LNG, LPG, Bulk and Break Bulk and Project Cargo. The port features state-of-the-art cargo handling terminals, deep draft facilities , multimodal connectivity (rail, road, conveyor, pipeline),  to support large vessel operations.
KPL offers vast backup land, robust customs and immigration facilities, and simplified ease-of-doing-business solutions through RFID, VTMS, digital payments, container scanners, and parking yards.
In March 2020, KPL became a wholly owned subsidiary of Chennai Port Authority, strengthening regional maritime synergy.
Today, KPL stands as a model of progressive port development in India, committed to facilitating trade, boosting the regional economy, and becoming the greenest and most energy-efficient port in the nation.
