Logistics Management

The Indian logistics market, regarded as one of the fastest-growing sectors of the Indian economy, is poised for growth and innovation in the coming future. Despite setbacks caused due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the logistics sector is driving high and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 10.7% between 2020 and 2024.

The logistics sector is also nurturing the growth of supply chain networks and manufacturing units in the automotive, retailing, healthcare and FMCG industries in the country. Growth in tech adoption, infrastructure modernization, the announcement of 35 multi-modal logistics parks in the country, the enterprising Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) Project and increasing capital investment through the External Commercial Borrowings route are some of the key factors which are playing a pivotal role in the growth of the Indian logistics sector.
