Pipavav shipyard, India’s largest by capacity, set to re-start operations after surviving bankruptcy - ET Infra
Pipavav Shipyard: An Indian Coast Guard ship will arrive at the yard this month for dry docking and the new management is in “advanced talks” with a global fleet owner for building large size green bulk carriers worth a few hundred million dollars
Pipapav couldn't execute its maiden naval contract for 6-7 NOPVs because of Chota Ambani's cash crunch. This experience would have surely dented the IN's perception about the capability of private yards to deliver on naval requirements. AFAIK all big-ticket orders since have gone to PSU yards who smartly subcontracted work to idling private yards like L&T!
Among private shipbuilders, I believe only L&T has developed some credibility by delivering the ICG Vikram class ahead of schedule. Their contribution to the strategic sub programme will also stand them in good stead.
Things could interesting though if Adani or even Mukesh Ambani entered the military shipbuilding business.

L&T is not idle. They have received orders for 3 CTS and 2 MPVs.
Centre launches Rs 1,000 crore Green Tug Transition Programme
The centre on Friday launched the Green Tug Transition Program (GTTP) aimed at converting conventional fuel-based harbour tugs to greener, more sustainable alternatives. An official statement said this will require an investment of Rs 1,000 crore.The first phase of GTTP will begin on October 1, 2024, and continue until December 31, 2027. “Four Major Ports—Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority, Deendayal Port Authority, Paradip Port Authority, and V.O. Chidambaranar Port Authority—will procure or charter at least two green tugs each,” the statement said while adding that the first set of tugs will be battery-electric, with provisions for adopting other emerging green technologies such as hybrid, methanol, and green hydrogen as the industry evolves.
