With the Baltic Dry Index having hit a 10-year high recently, Indian shipping companies are not just benefitting from the high freight but also from increased trade with Bangladesh and Vietnam, industry experts said on Wednesday.
“Construction activity has picked up significantly in Bangladesh as the country is focusing on infrastructure growth. Due to this, Indian shipping companies are witnessing increased cargo volumes with a lot of bulk raw material getting shipped.
