Pushing for growth
The potential is enormous when you look from a macro perspective. In India only about 20 per cent of organisations look at warehousing services from a supply chain point of view, whereas globally the average is over 60 per cent.
Growth in Store
Over the past couple of decades, the warehousing industry in India has evolved from the traditional concept of a ´godown´ - a small structure with four walls and shed - to a modern-day automated set-up which offers efficient inventory management and value-added services.
Need for speedy reforms
A holistic development model is required to push the sluggish growth in the ports sector. Looking at the bigger picture, from coal for power & steel plants to crude oil for refineries, ports provide a gateway for the majority of Indian trade.
AP Moller-Maersk to boost India play
Gujarat Pipavav is one of the reasons global shipping giant AP Moller-Maersk (APM) is willing to bet on India. Pipavav port´s revenue has grown at a CAGR of 23 per cent in the past five years and it has made Rs 323 crore in profits in three years.
The infrastructure story is waiting to unfold
Infrastructure is the backbone on which the economic and social wellbeing of any country hinges. Though India has emerged as the third largest economy, its GDP growth rate slowed down to less than 5 per cent in FY 13-14, as against a CAGR of 8.4 per cent during 2003 - 2010.
Enthusiasm from state government is lacking
From one-stop clearance to building the right infrastructure, the Indian cold chain industry needs a big push, feels Aditya G Bafna, Executive Director, Shree Shubham Logistics Limited.
Roadmap to Success
The construction equipment industry has witnessed substantial investments in the recent past with several companies setting up manufacturing bases, and the demand is likely to rise with the focus on infrastructure development.
Equipment market to grow by $30 bn
The telecom equipment market is set to increase by nearly $30 billion between 2013 and 2018, according to a report by Dell´Oro Group.
