Inside the Markets: India Update – October 2025 | Alang Resilience, Pricing Trends, and Compliance Leadership
In this episode of Inside the Markets from GMS Podcasts, host Jamie Dalzell reconnects with Kiran Thorat, Head of GMS India Office, for an in-depth update on India’s ship recycling market. Two months after their last discussion, Alang continues to demonstrate resilience amid slower arrivals, softer steel prices, and tighter negotiations. Kiran shares how Indian recyclers are maintaining full operational readiness, upholding Hong Kong Convention compliance across more than 110 certified yards, and positioning for a gradual market recovery post-Diwali. India’s consistency, transparency, and trust-driven approach once again reaffirm its leadership in global ship recycling.
