The company also reported that the Adani Ports and Gadot Group consortium secured a bid to take over a 100% interest in the Haifa Port Company for $1.13bn.

APSEZ whole-time director and CEO Karan Adani said: “Q1 FY23 has been the strongest quarter in APSEZ’s history, with a record cargo volume and highest ever quarterly EBITDA.

“This is an 11% jump on a robust performance in the corresponding quarter last year that witnessed the post-Covid demand surge.

“The company continued this strong performance in July and recorded 100MMT of cargo through-put in the initial 99 days of FY23, a feat never achieved before.”
