What does Gati Shakti Cargo Terminal (GCT) mean in logistics?
Short answer
A rail-connected cargo terminal developed by a private or non-railway party under Indian Railways’ Gati Shakti Multi-Modal Cargo Terminal policy.
The GCT policy replaced the earlier private freight terminal and private siding approaches for new terminals, allowing industries and logistics firms to build terminals on railway or private land to load and unload rakes. Ask our desk how this applies to your consignment.
