Outcome we drive: the right space, in the right city, on the right terms—so inventory turns faster and costs stay predictable.

Where we place your stock (backed by market data)

• Tier-1 hubs covered: Mumbai (Bhiwandi), Delhi-NCR (KMP/NH-48), Bengaluru (Attibele–Bommasandra), Chennai (Sriperumbudur–Oragadam), Ahmedabad (Changodar–Sanand), Pune (Chakan–Talegaon), Kolkata (Dankuni), Hyderabad (Medchal). Together, India’s top eight markets host ~45.1 mn sq m (≈486 mn sq ft) of warehousing stock with ~11.5% vacancy (2024)—ample choice without sacrificing service.
  
• Grade-A availability: About 41% of stock in primary markets is modern Grade-A—ideal for automation, higher racking, and strict QA workflows.
  
• Fact-checked rent bands (illustrative):
  – NCR KMP corridor: Grade-A ₹22–27/sq ft/month.
  – Mumbai–Bhiwandi belt: Grade-A ₹21–25/sq ft/month.
  – Chennai–Sriperumbudur: Grade-A ₹24–26/sq ft/month.
  

What we offer (short-term to long-term)

• Short-term (overflow, cross-dock, project peaks): Rapid intake, palletization, scan-in/scan-out, quality holds per your AQL, and carrier turn-times aligned to port/airport cut-offs.
  
• Long-term (contract warehousing): Dedicated zones, SOPs, cycle counting, ASN/EDI, KPI dashboards (OTIF, PPM, pick accuracy), and cost-down through slotting & layout optimization.
  
• Bonded & duty-deferred options: For import-heavy flows, we set up customs-bonded (MOOWR/Section 65) operations so basic customs duty is deferred until home-clearance; duty is remitted on exports. Recent CBIC guidance clarifies inter-unit transfers between Section-65 warehouses, keeping intra-India flows clean.
  
• Temperature-controlled: Chilled/frozen chambers, GDP/GWP-ready handling, and FSSAI-compliant storage practices where food products are involved. (FSSAI rules require storage at prescribed temperatures—even pre-clearance in customs warehouses.)
  
• Hazardous & regulated goods: Where needed, we align storage licensing to PESO Petroleum Rules thresholds and local fire/EHS norms.
  

Why our hubs move faster (and cost less)

• Rail + road leverage: We preferentially locate near the Dedicated Freight Corridors (EDFC fully commissioned; WDFC ~93% complete; overall ~96.4% project progress) to lift reliability and cut line-haul times.
  
• Next-gen logistics parks: We tap the government program of 35 approved Multi-Modal Logistics Parks (MMLPs) to combine storage with rail/road connectivity and value-added services.
  
• Digital visibility: Our facilities and transport partners interface with ULIP—the national data spine that crossed 100 crore (1 billion) API transactions—to improve milestone tracking and reduce manual follow-ups.
  

How we right-size your footprint

1. City shortlist with numbers: Stock/vacancy, Grade-A share, typical rent bands, and access to ports/airports/DFCs—so location choice is objective, not anecdotal.
   
2. Layout & racking plan: Clear height, floor load, dock count, MHE paths, and WMS integration mapped to your SKU profile (fast/slow movers, temperature needs).
   
3. Compliance pack: Warehouse licenses & SOPs (FSSAI where applicable, PESO for flammables, bonded/MOOWR where chosen), plus audit templates and safety drills.
   
4. Commercials & SLAs: Transparent cost sheet (rent, CAM, utilities, manpower), KPI targets (dock-to-stock, pick accuracy, inventory accuracy), and quarterly review cadence.
   

Your deliverables

• Warehousing Location Dossier: 2–3 city options with cost, service, and risk trade-offs (rent, free-time, connectivity, regulatory posture).
  
• Operating Blueprint: SOPs, WMS data model, slotting, audit checklists, and escalation paths.
  
• Bonded/Compliance File (if opted): MOOWR documentation map, duty-flow examples, and license/register templates.
  

Bottom line: IndiaUnbox blends hard market data with on-ground execution—so whether you need a two-week buffer or a multi-year campus, your warehouse is placed where it performs, priced where it should be, and compliant from day one.
