Specialist Advisory for Logistics, Infrastructure and Growth
Sector-focused consulting for shipping, logistics, supply chain, infrastructure, market entry, transactions, compliance and investment.
Logistics & Supply Chain Consulting
India's logistics sector is in the middle of its most consequential structural transition in decades. The National Logistics Policy targets reducing logistics costs from 14% to 8% of GDP — a gap that represents hundreds of billions of rupees in avoidable cost that the sector currently absorbs.
The Dedicated Freight Corridors, now fully operational on the Eastern and Western alignments, have changed the economics of rail freight irreversibly. The Bharat Container Shipping Line, announced in October 2025 with $6.9 billion in planned investment, signals India's intent to reduce its dependence on foreign carriers.
E-commerce logistics is also reshaping last-mile infrastructure requirements faster than many operators' investment cycles can match.
Specialist logistics services built around your operations
Eight specialised logistics and supply-chain advisory areas.
Infrastructure and Terminal Advisory
India's maritime and logistics infrastructure is being rebuilt at a scale with no precedent in the sector's history. Maritime Amrit Kaal Vision 2047 targets a place among the world's top maritime nations.
Sagarmala 2.0, backed by Rs 40,000 crore in budgetary support, is targeting Rs 12 lakh crore of unlocked investment over the next decade across 839 projects. Six new greenfield mega ports are planned.

Manufacturing & Trading SCM
India's manufacturing sector is at the centre of a consequential shift in global supply chain geography. The China-plus-one sourcing reorientation has made India a strategic priority for global buyers across electronics, textiles, pharmaceuticals, automotive components and industrial goods.
The PLI scheme, covering 14 sectors with an outlay of Rs 1.97 lakh crore, has approved 836 applications and attracted committed investments of over Rs 2.16 lakh crore.
Yet the supply chain infrastructure behind this manufacturing ambition remains a major operational constraint. Logistics costs, inventory practices, vendor bases and export documentation are important disciplines for manufacturers and global buyers sourcing from India.
Supply-chain solutions for manufacturing and trade
Inventory, warehousing, sourcing, procurement and distribution.
Market Entry & India Advisory
India's logistics and supply chain sector is at an inflection point. Rising domestic consumption, infrastructure investment at scale, and a maturing regulatory environment make it an important market for global shipping and logistics companies.
We provide end-to-end advisory support — from your first feasibility study to operational launch — supporting market assessment, business setup, partner identification and regulatory navigation.
Practical support for entering and growing in India
Market assessment, business setup, partners and regulatory navigation.
Legal, Compliance & Governance Support
Operating a logistics business in India without a robust legal and compliance foundation is an important operational risk. The regulatory architecture spans central statutes, state-level rules, customs law, labour legislation, GST frameworks and sector-specific licences.
A contract that works in another jurisdiction may require significant adaptation for India. We provide practical, logistics-specific legal and compliance support designed around Indian operations.
Commercial protection and regulatory compliance support
Agreements, regulatory compliance, risk assessment and governance.
Trade Finance and Investment Advisory
India's logistics and shipping sector is capital-intensive at every level — from import financing and freight bill discounting to large-scale warehouse and port infrastructure investment.
We bridge the financing and advisory gap by combining trade finance expertise with an understanding of how logistics businesses operate — their cash flow cycles, asset profiles, regulatory obligations and investor expectations.
Finance structures supporting trade and business growth
Working-capital, project-finance, funding and investor-readiness.
M&A, Valuation & Transaction Advisory
India's logistics and supply chain sector is witnessing consolidation. Private equity interest, domestic conglomerates and inbound foreign investment are reshaping ownership and transaction activity.
Whether you are acquiring a regional freight forwarder, divesting a warehousing arm, or seeking a strategic partner to scale operations, transaction advisory can help structure the process from target screening through integration.
Commercial insight for investment and transaction decisions
Due diligence, valuation, deal structuring and post-deal support.
ESG
End-to-end advisory and execution support across Environmental, Social and Governance priorities — tailored to an organisation's sector, regulatory environment and operating needs.
iLogBC along with TCL helps organisations navigate evolving disclosure frameworks, manage material ESG risks, and build credible sustainability strategies that deliver measurable outcomes.
ESG assistance for complex business requirements
Sustainability strategy, technology, decarbonisation, verification and sustainable finance.
Specialised Services
Beyond standard advisory, certain operational challenges faced by global buyers, logistics companies, and businesses sourcing from India require a different kind of support — one that combines on-ground execution capability with deep sector knowledge.
Whether you need a quality control infrastructure built and run on your behalf in India, a vetted sourcing partner network developed across product categories, or direct access and liaison with Indian government bodies and regulatory authorities, we provide specialised services designed around your specific operational context.
Specialist assistance for complex business requirements
Quality control, sourcing partners and government liaison support.
