The Indian logistics industry is witnessing yet another transformation. Companies are forging new alliances to transcend across geographical boundaries. Delhi-based logistics Indian multi-national firm, Budget Group has tied up with world’s top international logistics companies, FARDAR Express, Network Courier and AJ Worldwide for a wider reach across China, Hong Kong, Singapore, US and European markets.

The international consortium plans to invest close to USD 12 million through credit facility & investment into this partnership. This will expand its reach to the international network of 11 more countries. Apart from this Budget plans to invest another USD 3-5 million in next 5 years.
Driven by growth in the manufacturing and improving infrastructure, the organized logistics in the country is projected to expand at 15-20% CAGR over the next five years. Indian logistics sector has grown at a rate of 15% in the last five years. It is poised for accelerated growth, led by improvement in transport infrastructure, increased e-retailing penetration, impending GST implementation, and other initiatives like ‘Make in India.’
According to market estimates, the proposed growth offers opportunities across the spectrum for companies in transportation, storage, distribution, and allied services. And companies operating in the space are trying to get a share of the overall pie.
The GST will bring down the multiple taxes imposed by the central government and states and will lead to the creation of a unified market, which would facilitate seamless movement of goods across states and reduce the transaction cost of businesses.
The growing impetus on ‘Make in India’ campaign of the Indian government also focuses on strengthening of the Indian logistics industry. The success of the campaign and the growth of a number of industries such as IT/ ITeS, retail, pharma, and manufacturing depends largely on the growth of logistics sector. “The announcement of Make in India campaign, proposed GST Bill is bound to impact the sector’s performance and will help the logistics industry. However, in comparison to its global peers, Indian logistics industry still lags on account of infrastructure constraints. Thus it is imperative that Indian companies work aggressively on their expansion plans and gear up for next big change in the environment scenario.
