A top official from Blue Dart Express Ltd announced on Wednesday that the firm which has a significant position in air express and courier service, is planning to invest 2 billion rupees for air and ground infrastructure development in 2008.

In a press conference, Managing Director of the Company, Anil Khanna said that their focus is to develop more hubs and airport infrastructure in the country.

This is not all; the company would also be setting warehouses in different locations across the country and thus provide clients with more efficient service.

The charges of the air and ground service are to be increased by 10 to 15 percent in August or September. The company had already hiked air charges in June by 15-20 percent and ground prices by 10-15 percent in order to meet the rising diesel and aviation fuel costs.
