LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

OPERATIONS :

 

The company was able to reduce its losses compared to the previous fiscal by undertaking a series of measures such as introduction of fresh routes, increase in customer base, rationalizing operating cost and optimizing rake turn around times. Compared to the fiscal of FY09 (9 months), where the EBITDA was ( Rs.115.821 millions), the EBITDA for FY10 was (Rs. 51.793 millions). Despite better projections for FY10, the same could not be achieved due to various factors such as, depressed availability of return or secondary cargo, withdrawal of 10% discount on haulage by Indian Railway, increase in haulage tariff by Indian Railway, increase in diesel prices, upward revision of rail access charges levied by Indian Railway as well as private terminal operators, etc. Lack of adequate terminal and handling facilities, due to which profit levels were depressed.

 

FUTURE OUTLOOK:

 

The Company is in the process of setting up three terminals at strategic locations in order to achieve deeper penetration into perennial cargo generating clusters, where storage and consolidation of the cargo can be started as first steps to streamline transport logistics. The Company has been able to focus on finding cargo volume on “to and fro” routes and aims to build its future business model on selections which have the least number of idle legs.The Company see a large potential in the Pure transportation of goods, in the domestic segment of the logistics industry in India, which is currently being catered to by road transportation which is estimated to be close to 2.3 billion metric tons per annum. A penetration and conversion of 5% of this volume will translate to a requirement of 1500 rakes against the current 300 rakes in the sector. Apart from the domestic transportation and end to end transport solutions, the EXIM market is showing signs of revival with containerized cargo throughput increasing by approximately 12% yoy. The Company is aiming to turn EBITDA positive in FY11.

AS PER WEB DETAILS

 

HISTORY

As per recent reports, almost 72% market share of domestic product movement rests with an unorganized road network with rail managing to capture only about 30% of which Bulk cargoes like Cement, Coal, POL, Iron Ore etc. are the major constituents.


The rising fuel costs, poor quality vehicles, lack of proper infrastructure, waiting at various state borders all contribute to higher lead times in movement, hence more people required to manage the system, leading to increased logistics costs eventually burdening the end customer.


The logical solution therefore is to convert inefficiencies of road movements to very competent and efficient rail movement.

In line with the liberalization policy of Government of India, the Ministry of Railways issued licenses to private operators in the year 2006, for facilitating this essential transformation.


They are amongst the top service providers in the rail logistics business to have invested in Rolling stocks, Containers and Rail Terminals.


From the start of their operations in April 2007, they have covered over 18,00,000 kms and hauled over 1.2 Million Metric Tonnes of cargo, both for EXIM and Domestic trades.


With continued support from Indian Railways they aim to be the top service provider to the nation.

 

INFRASTRUCTURE

They have made substantial investments in their start-up infrastructure.


Rolling Stock

They have acquired wagons specially designed for transporting containers. Each rake comprises of 45 wagons having capacity of 90 TEUs (20 foot equivalent unit) or 2700 MT capacity.


Currently 540 wagons have been deployed on various sectors and they plan to induct as many as 900 wagons in the next fiscal.


Containers
They have a fleet of owned/leased containers of ISO standard – 20ft and 40ft, which serve the trade.


Their latest acquisitions includes 20 foot Trans rack containers capable of carrying 2 cars in one container and Flat Bed containers with capacity to carry a multitude of special project cargoes other making them the only private container rail operator, apart from Indian Railways with these specialized units. In addition they have End Open, Open Tops and Side Access units.


Container Terminals

They are setting up a number of rail handling facilities around the country.



Their first ICD is coming up at Sonepat, state -Haryana, about 35 / 40 km from Delhi and within the territorial

jurisdiction of NCR.



An integrated DRH facility is also being planned at Ludhiana.


Other on-going projects are ICD / DRH combination terminals at Orissa.


These facilities are planned logistic complexes with cargo warehousing space, container handling yards and dedicated rail sidings.

 

FUTURE GROWTH

They will continue to invest in rakes, terminals and different types of containers, including and not limited to specialized containers such as Tank containers and Open Top containers.



Special cargoes like Finished Steel, Tiles, Chemicals, Agri products, Paper, Marble etc which they’re till date transported over long distances by road can hence take advantage of their rail services which will in-turn assist them to respond to their clients need and transport cargoes safely and quickly.
