Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Logistics cost will reduce to 9% of GDP

 

Article link:

Logistics cost will reduce to 9% of GDP in 2 years: Gadkari

Extract from the article:

In a significant revelation, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari has disclosed plans to reduce India's logistics costs to a single-digit figure within the next two years.

Gadkari emphasized the aim to bring down logistics expenses to 9 per cent. The article also highlighted the remarkable growth of India's automobile industry from Rs 7.5 crore in 2014 to an impressive Rs 18 lakh crore by 2024.

My Take:

India to become Vehicle Scrapping Hub ?

Reflecting on my previous blog where I discussed India's potential to become a global automobile manufacturing hub, the recent announcement by Gadkari further solidifies the country's path towards this goal.

The focus on scrappage policies to modernize the automotive industry aligns with my earlier suggestion. The growth projections outlined in my blog seem to be aligning with the current developments, showcasing a promising future for India's automotive sector.


Taxing Polluters

Back in 2021, there was a discussion on implementing measures to encourage greener practices in the automobile industry.

Now, with the push towards scrappage policies as highlighted by Gadkari, the emphasis on reducing pollution and promoting sustainable vehicles is gaining momentum. The exponential growth expected in the automobile sector echoes the trends predicted in my earlier blog.

It's encouraging to see efforts being made to transform the industry in line with environmental concerns.

Call to Action:

To Union Minister Nitin Gadkari,

Your vision for transforming India's logistics landscape is commendable.

As you steer the country towards reducing logistics costs significantly, it is crucial to ensure that these changes benefit all stakeholders, including small businesses and consumers.

Continued transparency in policy implementation and engagement with industry experts will be key in achieving the desired outcomes. Keep up the momentum towards a more efficient and cost-effective logistics ecosystem.
