In the fast-evolving landscape of supply chain management, Baweja Automotives Pvt. Ltd. (BAPL) has steadily emerged as a trusted partner in warehousing, logistics, and distribution. With operations that span across major logistics hubs in India, the company has built a strong foundation of reliability, speed, and customer-centric innovation.
A Journey Rooted in Transport Legacy
The origins of BAPL are deeply tied to the entrepreneurial vision of its promoters, who initially began their journey through Ahmedabad Roadlines Pvt. Ltd. (ARL). Established as a trucking business, ARL quickly grew in scale and reach, serving marquee clients such as Samsung and LG. This legacy in road transport set the stage for BAPL’s expansion into integrated logistics and warehousing solutions.
In 2008, Mr. Litesh Baweja joined ARL with the aim of diversifying and scaling the business. A visionary leader with a go-getter attitude, he spearheaded the company’s entry into the two-wheeler automobile segment and expanded its operations to new domains. Alongside him, Mr. Rohiet, who had already been instrumental in scaling ARL’s operations and client base, played a crucial role in the company’s shift toward warehousing and value-added logistics.
Warehousing & Logistics Footprint
BAPL’s services today cover the complete spectrum of supply chain needs—from warehousing and inventory management to last-mile delivery.
Warehousing:
l 4,00,000 sq. ft. facility at Palwal
l 50,000 sq. ft. each at Kolkata and Mumbai
l Specialized handling of white goods and automotive spares
Logistics & Transportation:
l Primary transportation, hub handling, and last-mile distribution
l Dedicated fleet operations under ARL and group companies
l The company manages an average inventory of ₹1,800 crore for its clients and maintains stringent operational benchmarks such as a 99% on-time delivery rate, daily inventory audits, and a target of 15 QPH (quantities per hour) in consumer durables warehousing.
Milestones that Define Growth
l BAPL’s success is underscored by key milestones achieved in recent years:
l February 2023: Launch of its first warehouse in Kolkata, achieving a 60% reduction in TAT (Turnaround Time) for a major client.
l March 2024: Expansion into Mumbai with its second warehouse, ensuring material deliveries to the last destination within 48 hours.
l September 2024: Palwal warehouse inaugurated, offering end-to-end supply chain solutions across transportation and warehousing.
l Each milestone not only represents growth in capacity but also underlines the company’s commitment to customer delight, efficiency, and reduction of damages or shortages.
Leadership That Inspires
With over 24 years of industry experience, Rohit has been pivotal in expanding operations and securing BAPL’s first-ever large-scale warehousing project. His ability to blend operational excellence with customer relationship management has set high standards for the company. Meanwhile, Litesh Baweja’s strategic foresight has ensured diversification and long-term resilience in the business.
Looking Ahead
BAPL’s vision is to continue scaling its warehousing and logistics operations while embedding technology, automation, and sustainability at the core of its future growth. As India’s supply chain ecosystem continues to expand, BAPL stands prepared to play a central role in ensuring that goods—from consumer durables to automotive spares—reach their destinations with speed, accuracy, and care.
