Purpose of this paper is to elaborate the role of PPP in Indian ports. With globalisation and exponential rise in trading goods across the world, 90% of the country's trade by volume and 70% by value is being moved through Maritime Transport. Government's fund allocation for port development is inadequate and other avenues need to be explored. PPPs come off as a prudent and effective means of sustainable capacity building of ports. Different types of PPPs, areas in which PPPs can participate, their limitations and prospects are dealt with.
