Piping hot
During the Eleventh Plan period (2007-2012), domestic players exceeded the planned capital expenditure outlay. They invested Rs 2,751.6 billion, 120 per cent of the planned target of Rs 2,289.9 billion.
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.

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.
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.
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.
