Government Policies and Taxation
Rationalization of tax:
vThe enhancement of limit for disallowance of expenditure made in the case of transporters i.e. to raise the limit from Rs
20,000 to Rs 35,000 effective October 1, 2009 and NIL TDS for road transport, would certainly address the stringent practical
difficulties, which is step towards moving of this Industry from unorganised to organised structure.
vDeductions under section 80-IA meant for infrastructure industry, which has been extended to railways.

Infrastructure
Warehouses:
As per planning commission & industry estimates:
• Total existing warehousing capacity is 80 million MT out of which CWC has 10.8 million MT and 21.9.million MT in
SWC
• There are three agencies in the public sector which are engaged in building large scale storage/warehousing
capacity, namely, Food Corporation of India (FCI), Central Warehousing Corporation (CWC) and 17 State
Warehousing Corporations (SWCs).
Requirement:
• Additional warehousing capacity of 35 million MT in next 5 to 10 years at an investment of about INR 6 billion.
Current Status:
vMajor investments on these infrastructures have come from Government agencies like CWC, SWC, CONCOR etc.
vCurrent private sector initiatives are small and sporadic.
vPrivate sector warehousing are of poor quality, small, fragmented and does not meet infrastructure standards.
vNo quality standards or benchmarks are followed in infrastructure creation
Developmental Works:
• IL&FS is working with Continental Warehousing Corporation Ltd to set up six agri parks across India
FTWZ
• Primary objective is to create trade related infrastructure, envisaging world-class infrastructure for warehousing
of various products
• FTWZ addresses these issues effectively as they would enable supply chain / logistics to function much more
efficiently by removing the cargo bottlenecks witnessed at the ICDs
• In addition, such zones are envisaged to provide common infrastructure such as storage and handling
equipments, shared storage space, etc. which would enable the apportionment of associated capital costs across
a larger base of users leading to significant costs reduction.
Reference: IF&LS
INLAND CONTAINER DEPOTS (ICD)
Ø Robust growth of exim trade and capacity constraints in movement and evacuation of cargo has lead to a surging demand for
greenfield ICDs and expansion of existing facilities
Ø At least 40 to 50 new rail/ road ICDs/ CFS across the country needed to handle the projected traffic in next 5 to 10 years
Ø IL&FS is initiating development of ICDs on PPP format with agencies like CONCOR as well as private enterprises with the
objective of filling up this critical infrastructure need
Ø To create economies of scale, the business plan of ICD is being expanded to include SCM functions like warehousing, C&F and
other value added services to give the project shape of “Mega Logistics Park”
v The unplanned development of transport nagars across major industrial townships, metros, mini metros etc.
This has led to inefficient utilization of space, shabby infrastructures, road jams and danger to human life
v IL&FS has initiated development of integrated and modern logistics cum transport centers across major locations in the country
on PPP format
v The centers will lead to integrated development of warehousing, transportation and traffic planning leading to a much better
logistics operations
v Development of such integrated estates on in Uttaranchal, Chattisgarh, North East and Jharkahnd, in collaboration with
respective State Governments

For Operation Efficiency For Business Growth
Why not?
v It acts as single interface between the client and multiple logistics service providers.
v All aspects of the client’s supply chain are managed by the 4PL organisation.
v The 4PL organization is often separate entity established as a joint venture or long term contract
between a primarily client and one or more partners.
v It is also possible for a major 3PL provider to form a 4PL organisation within existing structure.
