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.

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%.

According to the Planning Commission, India’s shipping fleet strength will be increased up to15m GRT by the end of 2011-12, with an estimated investment of US$17.7 billion. The port throughput will increase up to 1,008m tonnes, growing at a CAGR of 10.96% from 2007-08 to 2011-12.
