However, post-GST we are well positioned to service the organised sector and will benefit from better turnaround times in road transport as well,” said Prem Kishan Dass Gupta, Chairman and Managing Director, GDL.

He further said, “During the fiscal year we have embarked on a mission to increase capacities in our network and bring value to the supply chain of our customers, keeping in mind that as the country's macro-level situation improves then trade volume will also increase.
