Calculating the transportation cost of a full truck load is not easy. The cost of hiring a full truck depends on 3 factors.

  • Operational cost: Operational cost of running a truck, which includes diesel cost, driver salary, and toll tax or fast tag expense. Diesel contributes to 50% of the running cost of a truck. Driver cost is about 15%, and fasttag is about 15%. All together, 80% of the cost is the operational cost of running a truck.
  • Fixed cost: Fixed cost of running a truck includes monthly loan repayment, or EMI repayment, which is 15% of the cost. Another 5% is miscellaneous costs, which include annual costs like maintenance, insurance, and road tax.
  • Supply and demand factor: This is the most changing factor out of the three. For example, hiring a 32 feet multi axle from Chennai to Kolkata cost Rs 90,000. Wherein the same truck from Kolkata to Chennai cost Rs 53,000. Market prices are determined by the availability of trucks for a particular route. Industrial hubs like Chennai, Mumbai, and Gujarat always have more demand for trucks than supply of trucks. Vice versa, consumption cities like Ranchi, Kolkata, and Guwahati have more supply than demand for trucks. This plays a vital role in determining truck transport costs and transportation charges.

FR8 Truck Load Board

Truck load rates are the price that a trucking company charges to transport a full truckload of goods. The rate is usually based on the distance that the goods will be shipped, the type of goods being shipped, and the availability of trucks to transport the goods. Other factors that can impact truck load rates include fuel costs, tolls, and the demand for trucking services. Trucking rates can differ widely depending on these and other factors, and it is important for companies to carefully consider their shipping needs and budget when selecting a trucking company.

Briefing

    The cost per KM of a transport truck in India depends on various factors such as:

  • Load type: Operating cost varies depending on whether trucks carry light, bulky goods or dense, heavy loads.
  • Truck age: Older vehicles incur higher maintenance; EMI varies for newer trucks.
  • Fleet size & ownership: Larger, owner-managed fleets can reduce maintenance costs by up to 15%.
  • Truck make/brand: Some brands deliver better mileage, influencing total capital and running costs.
  • Operating geography: Diesel prices, tolls, fines, and overloading tolerance differ by region (e.g., Rajasthan-Gujarat border is the strictest), affecting allowable load and cost.
  • Seasonality: Peak seasons (e.g., Diwali, paint demand before festivals) increase waiting times for loading/unloading, though the annual impact is moderate.

Again when you say commodities, rates are cheaper than for say Container trailers and are very high for project transport (think the ODC, super ODC cargo). Below mentioned is a brief overview of a typical 20", dry container transport truck.


Typical Cost Breakdown (for Rs. 100 expenditure):

  • Fuel - 40%
  • Tolls - 14%
  • Vehicle EMI - 17%
  • Wages - 11%
  • Tire wear & tear - 6-8% (better quality tyres = higher upfront cost but better longevity. Sad tyres at start = lower upfront but greater replacement costs).
  • Maintenance - 5%
  • Others - bribes (used to be as high as 10% pre GST and checkpoint era), Insurance, Fitness cert, police/accidents etc.

Real Time Example

Below is the cost structure of Indian trucking industry as per a study conducted in 2019. The figure is taken directly from their report for the purpose of better understanding on this subject. Sankagiri, a town near Salem in Tamil Nadu, is heavily centered around the trucking industry, so much so that Ashok Leyland once sold a truck model named the “Sankagiri Express.”
There they work on an owner-driver rental model: truck owners rent their vehicles to drivers, who earn 17 paise per kilometer while operating trips that keep them on the road for over 15 days at a stretch. When they return, drivers hand over the total earnings to the owner after deducting their per-kilometer share. Numerous additional calculations make the system complex. Eg: Pooja charges (₹100/ day), loading/unloading fees, fuel, commissions, and other travel expenses fall on the driver, while FastTag charges are handled by the owner. It's extremely complicated and time consuming to estimate exact expenses.
