The global logistics industry was valued at US$3.5 trillion in 2005, whereas US logistics industry size was around US$900 billion, 25% of the global logistics industry. Logistics costs in India are estimated to be around 13% of the GDP, which comes to around US$94 billion in 2005-06. However, India’s spending on logistics industry is much higher than the developed economies like the US (9.5%) and Japan (10.5%).
Marine transport sector contributes over 0.2% to the country’s GDP at constant prices (1999-2000 prices). Transport sector’s contribution to the GDP has been increasing because of the growing economic activities in the country. Shipping industry plays a significant role in the Indian economy.

Ports serve as the gateways to the international trade in India. Major ports in India together have handled 463.84m tonnes of cargo in 2006-07, a growth of 9.51% against the same period of the previous year. The petroleum-oil-lubricants (POL) accounted for 33.38% of the total traffic at major ports during April-March 2007, while iron ore constituted 17.37%, coal 2.98%, container traffic 15.84%, fertiliser 3.04%, and others 17.49%.
