Indian Coast Guard (ICG) Ship 'Amulya', the third in the series of eight new-generation Adamya-class Fast Patrol Vessels, was commissioned in Goa on December 19, 2025. This 51-metre vessel designed and built by Goa Shipyard Limited represents a new benchmark in indigenous shipbuilding. With more than 60 per cent indigenous components, Amulya, which means 'priceless', underscores India's steady progress towards defence self-reliance, in line with the Government's Atmanirbhar Bharat and Make-in-India initiatives. It integrates modern design philosophy focused on efficiency, endurance, and rapid response capability.

Powered by two 3000 KW advanced diesel engines, the ship delivers a top speed of 27 knots and an operational endurance of 1,500 nautical miles, enabling extended missions in India's maritime zones. It is fitted with indigenous state-of-the-art weapons/systems, offering superior manoeuvrability, operational flexibility and enhanced performance at sea. It will undertake a range of missions, including surveillance, interdiction, Search & Rescue, anti-smuggling operations, and pollution response, reinforcing ICG's role in safeguarding the eastern seaboard.

ICGS Amulya will be based at Paradip, Odisha, operating under the administrative and operational control of the Commander, Coast Guard Region (North East). The ship is commanded by Commandant (JG) Anupam Singh and has a complement of five officers and 34 personnel.

The commissioning ceremony was presided over by Joint Secretary (IC), Ceremonial & CAO Shri Amitabh Prasad, and attended by senior officials of ICG, Central and State Governments, and representatives from GSL. It marks another step forward in ICG's ongoing fleet expansion, which will contribute substantially to strengthening coastal security.
