In Q2, CONCOR's total expenses stood at Rs 1,469.78 crores as compared to Rs 1,444.34 crores in the September quarter of the preceding fiscal year.

The backdrop

The quarterly results come as the Centre is looking to offload 30 percent stake in the state-run company. The company develops multimodal logistics support for India's international and domestic containerisation and trade. In addition to providing inland transport by rail for containers, it has also expanded to cover management of ports, air cargo complexes and establishing cold-chain. Though rail is the mainstay of its transportation plan, CONCOR also provides road services to cater to the need of door-to-door services, whether in the international or domestic business.
