These Indian maritime transportation companies are mainly mid-sized and large firms, with a focus on ship management, port operations, and related services. VR Maritime Services Private Limited provides maritime services and employs over 5000 seafarers. Indian Register of Shipping offers classification, certification, and technical inspection services.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
