National port competitiveness-implications for India

---

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to perform an international comparison of logistics/port operations with a main focus on India.
Design/methodology/approach – Using data from the transportation and freight service industry during 2000-2005, this study first conducts revealed comparative advantage (RCA) analysis to investigate India’s logistics competitiveness and then uses data envelopment analysis (DEA) to analyze the efficiency of India’s container port operations.
Findings – The study’s findings suggest that in terms of India’s logistics competitiveness, its freight industry is relatively competitive while its transportation industry is not. Overall, while the study
indicates that India’s largest container port (Jawaharlal Nehru) is not very efficient; the RCA analysis shows that India still has a relative comparative advantage over its industrialized counterparts except for Japan and France in the transportation service industry. Interestingly, the DEA results alsoindicate that the efficiency value of the container port in India is second only to the US port of Los
Angeles among the ports examined in industrialized countries
