Scindia Steam Navigation Company Ltd.
The Scindia Steam Navigation Company was one of the oldest Indian shipping companies. Founded in 1919, envisioned by Walchand Hirachand, it was a joint venture of Walchand along with Narottam Morarjee, Kilachand Devchand and Lallubhai Samaldas all of them businessman hailing from Gujarat. It played a significant role in Indian independence. It was the first large scale Indian owned shipping company and started an India — Europe service with the ''Loyalty'' (ex-), but was forced to sign a 10-year agreement with British companies and its shipping route was restricted to the Indian coastal shipping trade for this period.
==National Maritime Day of India & Scindia==
April 5 marks the National Maritime Day of India. On this day in 1919 navigation history was made when SS Loyalty, the first ship solely owned by Indian people, who owned them The Scindia Steam Navigation Company, Ltd., journeyed to the United Kingdom. This was a crucial step for Indian shipping history as sea routes were controlled by the British. The National Maritime Day was first celebrated on April 5, 1964 remembering this historic day and event, saluting the indefatigable spirit of Indian entrepreneurs, who with-stood monopolistic policy of British government to launch a Ship, wholly owned by Indian management.
