German logistics company DHL eCommerce is set to enhance its operations in India by 2030, with a Rs 250-million investment plan.

The planned outlay is allocated for aircraft fleet capacity expansion by 35 percent and tripling of electric delivery vehicles to 1,000. It also includes the opening two new major hubs, along with the construction of 30 new facilities across the cuntry  and Rs 100 million in digitisation by 2030. This forms part of parent DHL's larger investment plan of Rs 500 million for India.

DHL's investment will be spread across various business units, including its major subsidiary Blue Dart, which remains a cornerstone of its Indian operations. The company recently expanded its aviation capacity with the addition of two new Boeing 737s, bringing the total fleet to 10. It will also bring in widebody aircraft which are fuel efficient.

The company is also looking at acquiring companies in the logistics segment in India, with the aim of enhancing its capabilities in certain areas with good management and talent and also to expand.
