CareEdge Research Report

In this report, we have analysed the imminent shift in the mode of freight movements from roadways to railways and the underlying factors facilitating the transition.

  • We expects container rail volumes to grow at a healthy compounded annual growth rate of 15.60% for FY22 to FY25 with steady improvement in rail-coefficient to 31%.

  • Slated completion of the prestigious dedicated freight corridor project by June 2023, increased trips of cost-effective double-stack container trains and incremental volumes of cement cargo through railways are prominent factors influencing the switch from roads to rail.

  • we believe that transit assurance under DFC aiming to squeeze the travel period by 40- 50% for some of the major routes shall accelerate this transition. This shall help in achieving ‘Just in Time' inventory management and hence improve cost competitiveness.

  • Nevertheless, higher haulage rates for freight traffic due to extensive cross-subsidisation of passenger traffic and the absence of a regulatory body for the railways are the underlying key challenges for the modal shift.
