“The government’s drive to encourage integrated logistics and multi-modal connectivity is definitely a positive move towards the progress of the logistics industry in India. In terms of infrastructure, there is a notable change in transportation with the development of highways. The new proposed measures under the PM ‘Gati Shakti’ plan for expanding the National Highway Network by 25,000 kms in 2022-23 will further boost logistics connectivity and improve last-mile deliveries. Additionally, the one window platform for the exchange of data among all stakeholders will bring in more transparency and ensure ease of doing business for leading enterprises as well as Indian logistics startups, providing real-time information, enabling efficiency and reducing the overall logistics cost and time.”
