Management Discussion and Analysis

Industry Structure & Development
Logistics and Supply Chain Management (SCM) are emerging areas of opportunity in the current economic
environment in India. India's Logistics industry and third party logistics (3PL) sectors are set to witness
explosive growth in the next five years and the sector is pushing for industry status.
"India serves as a good base for manufacturing for export of automobile components and
pharmaceuticals. The size of the domestic market itself is getting larger. These developments will lead
to increased market opportunities for logistics service providers in India."
The Indian Logistics Industry, which is estimated to be $73 billion, accounted for 13% of the GDP in
2006. The share of the organized logistics outsourcing industry is 6%, which is projected to witness a
25% CAGR over the period of 2006-2011 and to become a $15 billion industry by 2011. The contribution
of the organized logistics industry to the entire industry would increase to 14% by 2011.
Organized logistics market is projected to witness 8% CAGR over FY07-11, form Rs.3.3 trillion to
Rs.4.8 trillion, mainly driven by robust trade growth and improving infrastructure. However, the organized
sector of logistics outsourcing market is likely to grow from Rs.213 billion to Rs.615 billion over the
same period.
The demand for outsourcing logistics solutions will pick up momentum in the next few years. Organized
integrated logistics solutions providers will be key beneficiaries on their capability to provide superior
quality, low cost service in terms of network, infrastructure, fully integrated services and IT. Logistics
players are likely to register 25% CAGR from Rs.213 billion to Rs.650 billion by 2011.
During the next two years, strong revenue growth, coupled with expansion in operating margins arising
from economies of scale and integrated logistics solutions, is expected, driving the growth of industry
faster to 27% CAGR.
The Indian logistics market is dominated by surface transportation. Export-Import cargo which moves mainly
by sea and air cargo transportation forms an insignificant proportion of the total logistics market in India.
Out of the total volume of 2,801.3 million tonnes of cargo moved last year , seaports handled 573
million tonnes; airports 1.3 million tonnes; rail 667 million tonnes; road 1,560 million tonnes. (Source:

The Indian Economy is striving hard and is amongst the fastest growing economies of the world. India
being a key player in the BRIC driven economy is offering huge opportunities for the growth. The
Government is also taking many initiatives to push forward the growth so that the impact is felt by the
poverty stricken people of the Country. In particular, sectors like Capital goods, manufacturing, services,
are all on a roll India has emerged as a global hub for automobiles sector thereby pushing the exports
overall and not depending only on the traditional sectors like textiles and gems and jewellery. The new
economies like lab testing, chip manufacturing, clinical testing and others are giving the right impetus
to growth.
The Government of India is also supporting the trade and commerce by opening new SEZs and focusing
on developing infrastructure. All this will not only create newer opportunities for the local companies
but also will bring alongwith latest technologies from the developed economies of the world. The new
SAFTA agreement and the opening of more lines for free trade will encourage the local entrepreneurs
as well as those from the neighboring Countries to significantly expand the trade and commerce.The
new sectors like BPO, KPO,LPO ,etc are the emerging areas that will help in enhancing the per capita
income of the Country.
GOI is also adhering to its commitment to the WTO and the gradual reduction in trade tariffs as well as
the phased introduction of VAT will give the required impetus to the logistics industry. The VAT will
help in outsourcing of warehousing and logistics thereby favoring our industry. However, the higher
fuel prices in the international market is a sore point.
With the coming in of a large number of major Global Retailers, there would be an added requirement
of efficient and cost effective supply chain solutions and 3PL & 4PL logistics solutions within the country,
with the company's focus on expanding the mechantronic warehouses in the country will provide the
necessary fillip to remain ahead in the market. The largest network to cover the entire country keeps us
in even keel with respect to the changing requirement of the various industries.

With the relaxation in the airline industry and the increased consumption of products there will be a
faster growth cycle in the air cargo business. The domestic growth of cargo which used to be around 6%
5 years before, is now experiencing almost a double digit growth rate. With more players entering into
the area of cargo market for domestic business it will support the logistics industry for moving business
and will help in consumption.
Your Company's strategy to focus on establishing state-of-the-art mechantronic warehouses,value
added services,web based customer friendly technology solutions,warehouse management
systems,continuous process improvements,entering into new areas of high growth,3PL and 4PL,Cost
reduction,etc will ensure growth in the market share and dominance in the India centric business
requirements.
Threats, Risks and Concern

Being the leader in Asia-Pacific and a globally preferred provider of India centric supply chain services
and solutions, Gati faces competitions from both Indian as well as international companies. However
Gati's wide reach and competitive cost has helped in mitigating adverse impact of generic industry
risk factors.
Foreign exchange rate volatility has an impact on the business and on the foreign currency debt. However,
the Company has vast experience in the field to mitigate the risk considerably.
The logistics industry is characterized by the presence of numerous unorganized players who give stiff
competition to the company at local and regional level.
In International business the key threats are increased competition in India-centric segment and further
strengthening of Rupee could have a negative impact on the profit of subsidiaries.
The company's business is highly capital intensive in nature. The company needs to undertake huge
capital expenditures in the areas of networking, updating technology, setting up of warehousing space
on a regular basis which is the key to its growth.

supply chain services and solution, your company has established 100% wholly owned subsidiary namely
