The Swadeshi Steam Navigation Company (SSNC) was one of the first indigenous Indian shipping companies set up during the Indian independence movement. It was started in 1906[1] by V. O. Chidambaram Pillai to compete against the monopoly of the British India Steam Navigation Company (BISNC).[2] It sailed ships between Tuticorin and Colombo until it was liquidated in 1911.
