Transforming the nation’s logistics infrastructure-MykenseyApoorva Sharma
This report reveals that the Indian logistics infrastructure is really poor as compared to other countries like US and China.
Poor logistics infrastructure costs the economy an extra USD 45 billion each year.
This report is about India’s current Logistics infrastructure which is inadequate to meet growth aspirations and it also required Logistics infrastructure to grow through Strategies i.e. shift to a balanced modal network and then implementing them, For this national Logistics policy was emerged.
A large part of India’s future logistics network is still to be built
India uses roadways for the movements of goods more than railways and waterways which is not good for the environment and it is expensive also.
India spends 13 per cent of GDP on logistics which is more than what the US (9.5 per cent) and Germany (8 per cent) spend.
India needs to increase its use of rail, and realise the potential of its waterways.
The Objective was to increase India’s rail share to 46 per cent.
If India fails to achieve this, waste caused by poor logistics infrastructure will increase from the current USD 45 billion equivalent to 4.3 per cent of today’s GDP, to USD 140 billion or more than 5 per cent of the GDP in 2020.
If tackled in an integrated and coordinated manner, this can be reduced by half and India’s transport fuel requirement reduced by 15 to 20 per cent.

Comparison of Top 20 Countries with Largest Rail Network Size
China and India have low network density and high passenger compression on their networks, unlike
markets such as Germany, where the population and the land area are lower.
• China and India are considering increasing the
effective network length to lower the load on the
railways due to population (thereby reducing the
population per km of track).
• In Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Russia and
the US, as the population density is low, private
freight operators own and operate most of the rail
network.
