Industry Overview
The global shipbuilding industry comprises construction and modification of ships, offshore vessels and rigs. The broad categories of ships built are:
- Passenger carriers
- Offshore vessels
- Dry bulk carriers
- Tankers (Inclusive of LNG carriers)
- Container ships
- Defence vessels
On average, it takes 15-18 months to build a conventional vessel, i.e., a bulk carrier, tanker or container ship, and 28-32 months to construct a ‘liquefied natural gas (LNG)’ vessel and an ‘offshore rig and support’ vessel.
Over the past few decades, the shipbuilding industry has shifted from Europe to Asia, due to favourable factors such as cheap labour, competitive manufacturing and steel-making sectors, as well as state support.
- Typically, a shipyard requires a working capital of around 25-35% of the cost of the ship during the construction period. Moreover, the interest rates offered to shipbuilding yards in these countries are quite low.
- At the time of sale of ships, the Chinese and South Korean governments provide discounts/subsidies of 5-10% and 15-20%, respectively, thus helping players bid at lower prices against global competition.
In 2015, China, South Korea and Japan together accounted for 91% of global deliveries, with China commanding the largest share of 36%, followed by South Korea and Japan at 34% and 21% respectively.
The Indian shipbuilding industry can be divided into the following segments:
Public sector shipyards: India’s major shipyards have historically been from the public sector. They primarily build merchant-class ships and naval vessels. The Indian shipbuilding industry comprises eight public sector shipyards out of which four naval shipyards come under the purview of India’s Ministry of Defence, namely Hindustan Shipyard Ltd, Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Ltd, Goa Shipyard Ltd and Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers Ltd.
Private shipyards: The three listed private-sector shipbuilding companies are Bharati Defence & Infrastructure Ltd (BDIL), ABG Shipyard Ltd and Reliance Defence and Engineering Ltd (RDEL), formerly known as Pipavav Defence and Offshore Engineering Company Limited (PDOECL). Additionally, Larsen & Toubro Ltd is another major private sector player. In addition, there are a number of smaller private shipyards building smaller ships and vessels, including coastal vessels, barges, tugs, patrol ships and fishing ships.
The government has taken some key initiatives to develop and promote the country’s shipbuilding industry. In December 2015, the Cabinet approved the new shipbuilding policy, which aims to provide financial assistance to shipbuilders and grant infrastructure status for the industry. The government has set aside Rs 40 billion to implement the scheme over 10 years.

Competitive Strength
- Only public sector defence shipyard constructing conventional submarines;
- World-class infrastructure capable of serving the requirements of the Ministry of Defence;
- Location of the facilities promote closer association with the vendors and customers;
- Increase in indigenisation of the vessels and implementation of the “Make in India” campaign;
- Established track record with strong financial position and strong Order Book;
- Experienced board and senior management team and skillfully trained workforce.
Key Business Strategies
- Export of the products to the international markets
- Focus on ship repair
- Augmentation of infrastructure and enhancing the manufacturing capacity
Risk Factors:
- The continuing effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the business and operations is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
- The Company predominantly depend on the MoD for defence orders and have mostly been awarded such orders on a nomination basis by the MoD for use by the Indian Navy. There is no assurance that future defence orders will be awarded to us by the MoD. Further, recent changes in the policy framework governing defence procurement and manufacturing in India may result in Company no longer being given such orders which may have an adverse effect on our business growth, financial condition and results of operations.
- Company’s revenues from the MoD contracts including the submarine refit contracts are subject to the satisfaction of certain milestones and are subject to termination. Inability to fund such contracts at the time of inception or any termination of any of contracts with the MoD could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition and results of operations.
- Company’s entire business operations are based out of a single yard at Mumbai. The loss of, destruction, or shutdown of, our operations at our shipyard in Mumbai will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations
GMP of Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders and Overall Verdict
It is a dominant player in shipbuilding space and has a strong order book. As on 24 Sep, Grey Market Premium (GMP) is around 35-40%. GMP is affected by various market factors. The market corrected sharply on 22-24th Sep. That is why GMP is on the lower range. I think Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders can be subscribed for listing gain. Not a long-term investment pick for me, as the market hardly considers PSU companies as value investments.
Update on 27.09.2020, Time – 20:00– As per the latest Updates from different brokers, GMP of Mazagon Dock is at around 90-100%. So, we can expect a bumper response.
