The State of Karnataka, possesses a coastline extending over 343.3 km. It features one Major Port - New Mangalore Port Authority, which operates under the administration of the Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways, Government of India and 13 Non-Major Ports, which functions under the administrative control of the State Government through Karnataka Maritime Board.
Karnataka is one of the major iron ore producing state in the country, with primary iron ore deposits available in the districts of Ballari, Chitradurga, Tumakuru, and Chikkamagaluru. The iron ore export sector is a major source of revenue for the State's economy.
In the Government order read at (1) above to take effective necessary measures to prevent the unauthorized/illegal transportation /export of minerals from the State, and to implement statutory framework, prohibited the export of iron ore from the following 10 Non-Major ports exercising the powers conferred to the state vide Indian Ports Act 1908 and the Karnataka Ports (Landing & Shipping Fees) Act, 1961 (Karnataka Act 20 of 1961).
| 1 . Karwar Port | 2. Belekeri Port |
| 3. Tadadi Port | 4. Honnavar Port |
| 5. Bhatkal Port | 6. Kundapura Port |
| 7. Malpe Port | 8. Hangarkatta Port |
| 9. Old Mangalore Port 10. Padubidri Port |
Hon'ble Supreme Court in the judgement read at (2) above in Writ Petition (Civil) No: 562/2009 as directed as follows.
"We also grant permission to the applicants to export the iron ore and pellets manufactured from the iron ore produced from the mines situated in the State of Karnataka, to countries abroad, as is being done in the rest of Country, but strictly in terms of the extant policy of the Government of India " The Chief Executive Officer, Karnataka Maritime Board in the letter read at (3)above has stated that Karnataka Maritime Board (KMB) prepared a draft Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) namely "Karnataka Non-Major Ports Iron Ore Handling Policy" and the said draft SOP was placed before the 9th Karnataka Maritime Board meeting, chaired by the Hon'ble Chief Minister, Government of Karnataka and Chairman, Karnataka Maritime Board. After due deliberations, it was resolved as follows:
5RESOLVED THAT, CEO, KMB IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO SUBMIT THE STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE (SOP) TO THE INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT PORTS & INLAND WATER TRANSPORT DEPARTMENT (IDP&IWT), GOVERNMENT OF KARNATAKA FOR APPROVAL.
As per the above board directions, the Chief Executive Officer, Karnataka Maritime Board has submitted the proposal for implementation of -Karnataka Non-Major Ports Iron Ore Handling Policy - 2025 to the Government for consideration.
Resuming the import/export of iron ore from the State's Non-Major ports will enable the efficient utilization of naturally available iron ore in the State, there by bolstering the trade in the national/international market. This will contribute to generate direct and indirect employment in the coastal region as well as improve the livelihoods of the coastal community. Additionally, this would encourage port led industries in the region, thereby substantially contributing to economic progress of the state and the state exchequer.
In view of the above, after examining and consulting about the draft Karnataka Non-Major Ports Iron Ore Handling Policy – 2025 with concerned various departments and after incorporating the views of the various departments in the draft Karnataka Non-Major Ports Iron Ore Handling Policy – 2025 decision has been taken by the Government to formulate and adopt a Karnataka Non-Major Ports Iron Ore Handling Policy – 2025 Hence the following order.
GOVERNMENT ORDER No. IDD 07 PSP 2024, BENGALURU, DATED: 02.12.2025 In view of the factors outlined in the proposal, the following orders have been issued to resume import/export activities of iron ore in the minor ports of the state: 1. The Government Order No. PWD 186 PSP 2010, dt:26-07-2010, prohibiting the export of iron ore from 10 minor ports of the State is withdrawn with immediate effect.
2. Implementation of the "Karnataka Non-Major Ports Iron Ore Handling Policy, 2025" – Standard Operating Procedure for the export and import and trade of iron ore from the Non- major Ports of the State as per Annexure.
The above order is issued with the concurrence of Finance Department vide Note No. FD 46 EXP1/2024, dt:26.03.2024; Law Department vide Note No:LAW-677 OPN/ 2025, dt:02.09.2025 Commerce and industries Department Vide Note No.CI 97 MMM 2024, dt:01.04.2025, Revenue Department vide Note No. RD-LGP/19/2024,dt: 20.05.2025, Home Department vide Note-7 of file No: IDD/7/PSP/2024, dt:12.11.2025 and Transport Department vide Note No.232 TDO 2025, dt:18.11.2025 and Cabinet Note Subject No.C-990/2025, held on 27.11.2025.
By order and in the name of the Governor of Karnataka
(Dr.N.Manjula) Secretary to Government Infrastructure Development, Ports and Inland Water Transport Department6 KARNATAKA MARITIME BOARD
GOVERNMENT OF KARNATAKA
Location of Non- Major Ports of Karnataka
1. Background Note on the Handling of Iron Ore at
Non-Major Ports of Karnataka.
1. Karnataka is one of the leading producers of iron ore in India. The mining and export of iron ore have been important contributors to the state's economy. The state's iron ore production in the financial year 2020-21 was estimated to be around 34 million tonnes. Iron ore reserves are mainly found in Bellary, Chitradurga, Tumkur, and Chikmagalur districts. Further, Iron ore has been exported through the western coastal lines, and also through Karwar, Old Mangalore and Belekeri ports in past.
2. The Karwar Port and Belekeri Port are Non-Major Ports under the Karnataka Maritime Board, Government of Karnataka. These ports are in operation for shipping activities since 1957-58. Commodities such as Iron Ore, Manganese Ore, Timber, Industrial salt, etc., were handled at Karwar and Belekeri Port. In the year 2003, due to the sudden rise in the demand for Iron Ore from foreign countries especially from China, the export of Iron Ore increased drastically. At Karwar Port, Iron Ore was being loaded alongside the berth and anchorage, whereas at Belekeri Port only anchorage loading through barges was operated.
3. Due to this, the Belekeri Port was earning a direct revenue of about ₹ 15 Cr per annum. Further, the land at Karwar port was given on a rental basis to registered stevedores. The Port was earning a direct revenue of about ₹10 Cr per annum attributable to handling of Iron Ore only.
The Stevedores were receiving the Iron ore, stocking it in their leased/rented land, and then loading it onto the ships for export after the shipping bills were cleared by customs authorities.
4. In July 2010, on the recommendation of the Commerce and Industries Department, to temporarily ban the export of Iron Ore through the Non-Major Ports of the state vide DO Letter No. CI 162 MMM 2010, the Public Works, Ports and Inland Water Transport Department banned7 the export of Iron Ore through the Non-Major Ports of the state vide GO No. PWD 186 PSP 2010 Dated: 26.07.2010.
5. The Iron Ore exports from Non-Major Ports of Karnataka are now permitted vide Honʼble Supreme Court order WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) NO. 562 OF 2009 dated 20.05.2022 and all other IAs connected with it. Hence there is a need for formulating standard operating procedure (SOPs) for the handling of Iron ore through the Non- Major Ports of Karnataka.
