Exporters flag terminal fee, low dry ports use to Piyush Goyal

Exporters and freight agencies raised the issue of high terminal handling charges at ports and low usage of dry ports or inland container depots, which add to the overall logistics costs.

At a meeting with commerce and industry minister Piyush Goyal, they said the fee charged by shipping terminals to store and position containers before they are loaded on a vessel is higher by Rs 10,000-15,000 per consignment than what ports charge.

 “It was a stock-taking meeting on logistics and shipping issues. The government is looking at reducing logistics costs everywhere,” said an official. India aims to cross $800 billion of goods and services exports in fiscal 2025 as against $778 billion in the last fiscal year.
