The Central Institute of Fisheries Technology (CIFT) is a premier national research center under the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR). Established in 1957, its headquarters is located at Willingdon Island in Kochi (Cochin), Kerala [t4][t5][t8]. While the institute has regional research centers in Visakhapatnam, Mumbai, and Veraval, its primary administrative and research hub is situated in Kochi [t1][t6][t7]. The institute is dedicated to research in all disciplines related to fishing and fish processing, including harvest and post-harvest technologies [t7][t10].

Therefore, Kochi is the most accurate option among the choices provided.
