Rationale:
- India’s logistics reset is a trillion-dollar opportunity waiting to unlock. With logistics costs at 13–15% of GDP versus global 7–8%, PM GatiShakti and NLP aim to close this gap creating massive efficiency gains, boosting exports, and driving multi-year profit expansion across the logistics value chain.
- As the cheapest mode of transport (50%+ cheaper than road) and backed by record capex, rail-centric logistics and multimodal hubs will reshape freight movement and accelerate growth of organized, tech-driven players.
- With the sector growing at 10–12% (heading to 12–15%) and only 10% organized today, listed players can gain disproportionate market share growing 2×–3× faster than the industry as formalization accelerates.
- A diversified basket of the entire ecosystem captures rail infra, 3PL, warehousing, cold-chain & ports reducing risk while maximizing exposure to one of India’s biggest structural megatrends and most powerful multi-year compounding opportunities.
