INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
Logistics has huge impact on the domestic and global economy of any country
Logistics is about moving materials, information and funds from one business to another business or from a business to the consumer.
Logistics is an important part of the economic system and is a major global economic activity.
It encompasses activities like freight transportation, warehousing, material handling, protective packaging, inventory control, order processing, marketing, forecasting and customer service.
Historically, the logistics sector was clearly separated and restricted mainly to transportation and warehousing.
The logistics management in today’s world however, covers all the aspects of value chain including an efficient integration of transportation, distribution, warehousing, reverse logistics, value added services such as payment collection, packaging, documentation, customer brokerage facilities, kitting, repair management, reconfiguration etc.
The developments of IT in recent years have further had remarkable implications for the logistics industry.
The Indian logistics industry has come a long way from being a labour intensive during 60’s to the present technology oriented system that provides wide range of logistics services.
Traditionally, manufacturing companies in India managed their own logistics requirements in-house.
The country then gradually evolved from the stage where basic services were outsourced to different service providers known as the (Second-Party Logistics) 2PL service providers.
With the increasing demand, the service providers started providing integrated services together with other value added services, while the organizations focus on the core competencies and streamline their supply chain known as 3PL.
India has become the prime destination for logistics service providers all over the world.
The demand for logistics services in India has been largely driven by the remarkable growth of the economy.
The growth is being projected at 9-10 per cent in next few years, with the CAGR (compounded annual growth rate) expected to grow at a rate of 7-8 per cent.
This growth is expected to gain greater momentum due to the exponential growth of the Indian economy.
In terms of infrastructure, road is the dominant mode of transport which accounts for 68% of freight movement in India.
Railways are considered a relatively cheaper mode of transport and are used mainly for transporting bulk materials over long distances.
About 89% of its freight traffic is contributed by major commodities such as coal, fertilizers, cement, petroleum products, food grain, finished steel, iron ore and raw material to steel plants.
The balance 11% is other commodities moving in bulk and containers.

PORTER’S FIVE FORCE MODEL
THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES : MEDIUM
Highly customer oriented company with multiple vendor options.
BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS : MEDIUM
Only a few large sectors and companies like the automobile sector are able to get significant discounts.
BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS: MEDIUM
Government control of fuel prices makes it difficult to control, predict and pass on the fuel costs to customers
THREAT OF NEW ENTRANTS : MEDIUM-HIGH
On one hand barriers to entry is low in terms of ease of getting a license; industry is vulnerable to intense competition and easy scale-
up;
Can be provided without assets.
However the cost of capital is high with complex taxation laws, congestion of key rail, road and port networks.
RIVALRY AMONG COMPETITORS : HIGH
Highly fragmented - large number of local, regional and national players.
Commoditization of products due to lack of differentiation leading to further price erosion.
Gati's competitors have business models which allow them to offer services at pricings to cost sensitive customers which Gati cannot.
ENVIRONMENTAL THREATS & OPPORTUNITIES PROFILE
MARKET ENVIRONMENT India currently spends 13% of its GDP on logistics, which is
expected to come down to 8.10% due to logistics systemsand acceptance of service providers.

REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT
The core issues for the firm include whether the highlycompetitive EDS/courier industry, with no entry or exit barriersand multiple operators (more than 2500 companies) actuallyneed a regulator.
