The Great Eastern Shipping Company Limited (GE Shipping / GESHIP)! It's spot-on and reflects the company's position as of early 2026, with only a few small updates from the latest sources (fleet has grown slightly, and leadership was formalised recently).
Here's a refreshed version of your summary with the most current details:
Company Overview

What the Company Does
GE Shipping remains focused on global bulk commodity transport and offshore support:

- Offshore: Support vessels, mobile drilling rigs, and oil exploration services through its wholly-owned subsidiary Greatship (India) Ltd.
It’s still India’s largest private-sector shipping and oilfield services provider, with over six decades of experience and a strong international client base (oil majors, governments, etc.).
Fleet (as of March 2026)
- 41 vessels (up from the 38–42 range in older reports):

- 14 dry bulk carriers: 2 capesize + 9 kamsarmax + 2 supramax + 1 ultramax

The company continues active fleet renewal — for example, it just contracted a secondhand Kamsarmax dry bulk carrier in early March 2026.
