Growth in container trade operator (CTO) volumes is expected to remain muted in this fiscal on account of subdued export-import trade environment.
A report by ratings agency Icra shows that the overall CTO volumes recorded some improvement during Q2 of FY20. However, the overall outlook is poised to stay bleak.
