What Container Corporation of India does

State-controlled operator of container rail freight terminals, moving import/export and domestic cargo across India by rail.

Pays Indian Railways to haul containers and adds fees for terminal handling and door-to-door service, so profit is the spread between what it charges shippers and what it pays the railways. Private rivals have been allowed since 2006. The central government is the controlling shareholder.

In one line: India's rail-container equivalent of J.B. Hunt intermodal.
