- The Centre has released the fifth edition of the National Time Release Study (NTRS).
- The Time Release Study (TRS) measures the time taken for cargo release to assess clearance process efficiency.
- It analyses the time taken in the seaports, Air Cargo Complexes (ACCs), Inland Container Depots (ICDs), and Integrated Check Posts (ICPs).
- The Average Release Time (ART) in imports declined between 2023 and 2025 at the seaports (~6 hours), ACCs (~5 hours), and ICPs (~18 hours).
- But Integrated Check Posts saw a ~12-hour increase.
- 93.33% of import cargo at ICPs met the 48-hour NTFAP 3.0 target.
