The July August 2024 issue of ITLN focuses on pharmaceutical logistics, cold chain and logistics automation in India. While Cover Story presents logistics as an enabler of India's vision to be the world's pharmacy, Focus is on cold chain logistics and how it is poised to play a crucial role in India's sustainable development goals.
Spotlight talks about how can automation transform India’s logistics sector and the high costs, job displacement, and complex integration challenges it faces. We have a Guest Column on how e-commerce companies are facing stiff competition with quick commerce players expanding to electronic items, mobiles and white goods. We also have an interview with Ramnath Subramaniam of TVS Infrastructure Investment Manager who speaks about TVS ILP’s need for InvIT, challenges and opportunities in the market.

India's pharmaceutical exports surged 9.67% to $27.9 billion in 2023-24, despite a 3% dip in overall exports, according to commerce ministry data. The Indian pharma market relies on evolving logistics. With India supplying 60% of the world's vaccines, the sector is projected to generate $7.61 billion in logistics revenue by 2032.
