Gateway Distriparks (GDL) has successfully completed its first double stack train service from Multimodal Logistics Park (MMLP) Ankleshwar to Inland Container Depot (ICD) Garhi on 15 October 2025. The train carrying both EXIM and domestic containers operates under a hub-and-spoke model connecting JNPT to ICD Garhi via Ankleshwar.

This milestone marks Gateway Distriparks’ entry into domestic services from Ankleshwar to North India, further strengthening the company’s integrated logistics network. By connecting western and northern industrial hubs, GDL enhances multimodal connectivity and operational efficiency.

“There is tremendous potential to expand this service, and we are truly excited for what lies ahead,” said Samvid Gupta, Joint Managing Director, Gateway Distriparks. “This initiative reinforces our commitment to providing seamless, cost-effective, and sustainable logistics solutions across India.”

Looking ahead, EXIM operations from Ankleshwar are expected to commence by the start of the next financial year, coinciding with the Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) connectivity to Nhava Sheva. This development will further boost double-stack capability and enable faster, more efficient cargo movement between ports and industrial centers.
