India moves the bulk of its trade through nine major ports spread across two long coastlines. SCARDET supplies genuine and OEM marine spare parts to vessels, ship managers and repair yards at every one of them.

Indian ship management offices run some of the largest crewed fleets in the world, and the buying happens in Mumbai, Chennai and Kochi even when the vessel is on the other side of the planet. SCARDET works both sides of that: we quote the technical superintendent onshore and we deliver to the vessel wherever it calls, including back into Indian ports on the return leg.
Coverage runs from Kandla and Mundra on the Gulf of Kutch, down through JNPT/Nhava Sheva and Mumbai, around to Kochi and Tuticorin, and up the east coast through Chennai, Visakhapatnam, Paradip and Haldia. We also supply vessels under repair at Cochin Shipyard and the Kattupalli and Mumbai yards, and the recycling yards at Alang where machinery is stripped and re-certified.
Technical superintendents in Mumbai, Chennai and Kochi get itemised quotes against the machinery list, with genuine and class-approved alternatives priced side by side.
Overhaul kits and wear parts for vessels docking at Cochin Shipyard, Kattupalli, Mazagon and the west-coast repair berths.
West coast through Kandla, Mundra, JNPT and Mumbai; east coast through Chennai, Visakhapatnam, Paradip and Haldia — plus Kochi and Tuticorin in the south.
Documentation prepared for Indian Register of Shipping surveys alongside ABS, DNV, LR, BV, RINA and NK.

Indian customs treats ship spares differently depending on whether the vessel is foreign-going or coastal, and getting that classification wrong is what holds consignments at the port. We prepare the documents to match the vessel's status, work with your appointed CHA and agent, and keep you updated with the tracking rather than leaving you to chase it.
Indian-managed tonnage leans on MAN B&W and Sulzer two-strokes, Wärtsilä, Yanmar, Daihatsu and Cummins auxiliaries, Alfa Laval purifiers, and Shinko, Teikoku and Naniwa pumps — plus a large refit market where reconditioned and OEM-equivalent parts do most of the work.
Each hub works differently — berth windows, anchorage runs, yard schedules. Here is how we handle the main ones.
The centre of Indian ship management. Most enquiries we handle from Mumbai are placed by technical superintendents buying for vessels trading anywhere in the world — we quote the office in Mumbai and deliver to whichever port the vessel is calling. For vessels alongside, we cover Mumbai Port and JNPT/Nhava Sheva across the harbour.
Alang is the largest ship recycling cluster in the world, and the reason so much marine machinery in India is reconditioned rather than new. We supply into that market from the other direction: where a reconditioned unit is the sensible call we source and supply one with test reports, and where it is not we say so and quote the OEM part instead.
East coast delivery for vessels at Chennai Port and Ennore, plus docking packages for the L&T Kattupalli yard. Chennai is also home to a cluster of ship management offices buying for foreign-going tonnage.
Cochin Shipyard is India's largest, and dry-dock work there runs to fixed windows. We quote against the docking list and time delivery to the yard schedule rather than shipping piecemeal.
The Gulf of Kutch handles a large share of India's bulk and tanker traffic. Deendayal (Kandla) and Mundra are both within short reach of our UAE hub, which usually makes them the fastest Indian ports for us to supply.
East coast bulk and naval traffic, with Visakhapatnam also serving a repair and offshore support fleet. We deliver alongside and to the anchorages at both.
Genuine and OEM spare parts across every major marine manufacturer, delivered with class documentation.

What owners, managers and superintendents ask us most about marine spare parts supply in India.
All major ports on both coasts — JNPT/Nhava Sheva, Mumbai, Mundra, Deendayal (Kandla), Chennai, Cochin, Tuticorin, Visakhapatnam, Paradip and Haldia — plus the repair yards at Cochin, Kattupalli and Mumbai.
Yes. A large share of our enquiries come from technical superintendents at ship management offices in Mumbai, Chennai and Kochi buying for vessels trading worldwide. We quote against your machinery list and deliver to whichever port the vessel is calling.
Yes. Alongside genuine OEM and new class-approved replacements, we supply professionally reconditioned and tested components with test reports — a practical option for refit work and for older tonnage where the OEM lead time no longer fits the docking window. We will also tell you when reconditioned is the wrong call: for stretch-critical items such as connecting rod bolts, or anything going into a unit that has already failed once, new is the only sensible answer.
It depends on the component and how long the vessel has left in service. Alang feeds a large reconditioned market and for many items — cylinder heads, turbochargers, pumps, complete gensets — a properly tested reconditioned unit is sound engineering and a fraction of the OEM lead time. For wear parts with tight tolerances, and for anything stretch-critical, new is worth the wait. We quote both routes with the real lead times so the decision is yours rather than ours.
Primarily spare parts, but we also source complete units — auxiliary engines, generator sets, turbochargers, compressors and pumps — new and reconditioned, where replacing the machine makes more sense than rebuilding it. Send the make, model and rating and we will come back with both options.
We prepare documentation appropriate to the vessel's status — foreign-going or coastal — and work with your appointed clearing agent and port agent. Getting that classification right at the outset is what prevents consignments sitting at the port.
Yes. We put together docking packages — cylinder liners, piston rings, bearings, valve spindles and seats, gasket and overhaul kits, purifier bowl sets — timed to the yard schedule rather than shipped piecemeal.
Yes. We supply class-approved components with certificates of conformity and traceability suitable for IRS surveys as well as ABS, DNV, LR, BV, RINA, NK and CCS.
Same scope, same documentation, delivered to vessels wherever they trade.
