Kerala Shipping and Inland Navigation Corporation Ltd (KSINC)

The Kerala Shipping and Inland Navigation Corporation Ltd (KSINC) is a public sector undertaking owned by the Government of Kerala, headquartered in Kochi. KSINC, an initiative of the Kerala government, is the forerunner of inland navigation in the Kerala waterways. Two yards are owned by KSINC for the construction and maintenance of small vessels. In order to meet a variety of client needs, KSINC upholds high standards of quality in all facets of the building, maintaining, and operation of vessels. The highlights of KSINC's own cruise vessels are the exclusive luxury cruise, Nefertiti and the premier Sagararani (1 and 2). In 2005, KSINC began its tourist business. Public trips to the sea are planned at Sagararani. There are two ships in service right now. It is also the pioneer in mechanised cargo movement in Kerala and still the largest player. Two cargo barges, six petroleum barges, two acid barges, and two RO-RO are now operated by KSINC. In 2024–2025, KSINC generated a turnover of Rs. 30.47 crore and a net profit of Rs. 87.98 lakh.
