Shares of Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDL) and Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers (GRSE) are in focus today as the shipping sector anticipates a potential boost. As per the CNBC Awaaz report, the government is reportedly considering granting infrastructure status to the shipping industry, a move that could significantly ease financing for shipping companies.
