1. Logistic Industry Outlook

The logistics industry is a comprehensive service industry that includes a series of activities such as transportation of goods by air, land, and sea, warehousing, freight forwarding, customs clearance and others. It involves the movement of products from the origin to the production system, and then to their final consumption point to meet the needs of customers or enterprises.

The Logistics Industry is undergoing a rapid digital transformation, aiming to simplify procedures, reduce expenses, and enhance effectiveness through digitalization. The digital revolution has enabled stakeholders to make data-informed decisions.

The more successful companies throughout the logistics sector are gravitating towards artificial intelligence (AI), block chain and other technological solutions to help solve present challenges being faced by logistics sector. Digital tools will add value at each stage of the logistics journey. McKinneys Travel, Logistics, and Infrastructure Practice estimated that advanced technology could not only reduce logistics costs by as much as 25% but also help logistics companies offer better service and free internal capacity for other purposes.

The logistics Industry in India is shifting to align with the evolving business landscape. Improved Infrastructure, increased emphasis on digitalization and heightened focus on sustainable logistics are driving this shift as the country sets its eyes on unleashing the potential of becoming a US$ 26 trillion economies by FY 48 (with US$ 6 trillion by FY 30)

The Logistics sector in India was valued at US $ 250 billion in 2021, with the market predicted to increase to an astounding US$ 380 billion by 2025, at a healthy 10-12% year-on-year growth rate. Moreover, the Government is planning to reduce the Logistic and Supply Chain Cost in India from 14% to 10% of the GDP as per Industry standards.

Another key trend in logistics sector is that ocean freight rates are going up and are expected to remain high for the substantial part of the current year because of Red Sea crisis as the increase in nautical miles travelled need to be factored in. This has resulted in sharp turn in supply chain pricing.

Likewise, Air Freight prices have also gone up because of increased demand. Global Air Cargo market is on a pathway to double-digit growth in volumes in the current financial year. Disruption in Ocean container services has also been a factor for increase in Air Freight rates.

The Indian logistics sector is facing a number of challenges, including:

- High logistic costs: Indias logistic costs are higher than the global average, which makes it difficult for Indian businesses to compete in the global market.

- Inefficient Infrastructure: Indias infrastructure is not as developed as the infrastructure in developed countries. This can lead to delays and disruptions in the logistic process.

- Lack of skilled manpower: There is a shortage of skilled manpower in the Indian logistics sector. This can make it difficult for logistics providers to meet the growing demand for their services.

Despite these challenges, the Indian logistics sector is poised for growth. The government is taking steps to address the challenges facing the sector, such as by investing in infrastructure and developing skills training programs. The growth of e-commerce and manufacturing is also expected to boost the sector in the coming years.

Here are some of the key trends that are impacting the Indian logistics sector:

- Digitization: The logistics sector is being rapidly digitized, with the use of technology to improve efficiency and visibility. This includes the use of GPS tracking, block chain, and artificial intelligence.

- Sustainability: There is a growing focus on sustainability in the logistics sector, with companies looking to reduce their environmental impact. This includes the use of renewable energy, energy-efficient vehicles, and green packaging.

- Regionalization: The Indian Logistic sector is becoming more regionalized with companies focusing on services serving specific regions or industries. This is due to the vast size of India and the different needs of different regions.

- Globalization: The Indian logistic sector is becoming more globalized, with companies looking to expand their operations to other countries. This is due to the growing demand for Indian goods and services around the world.

These trends are expected to continue to impact the Indian logistics sector in the coming years, driving growth and innovation in the sector.
