Academic Foundations & Global Pedigree
The business leadership principles practiced by Chander Agarwal are rooted in rigorous international education and operational grounding:
• Bryant University (Rhode Island, USA): Earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, concentrating on international business management and industrial operations.

The Standalone Demerger of TCI Express Limited

1. Asset-Light Framework: TCI Express operates a dedicated contracted container fleet managed via centralized telematics and GPS geofencing.
2. Automated Mega-Hubs: Capital was concentrated into state-of-the-art sorting centers in Gurgaon and Pune, equipped with motorized conveyor networks and Dimension-Weight-Scanning (DWS) systems that reduced manual package handling by over 80%.
3. National Reach: The company operates across 900+ company branches, servicing 28 states and Union Territories across multimodal verticals.
