Abstract The MSCs of containerized freight are crippled because of the presence of barriers in a rapidly growing country like India. Identification and evaluation of these barriers is necessary to understand their influence on MSCs. Hence, this study discerned 46 barriers under six major category through extensive literature review and conducting Delphi survey. Thereafter, fuzzy AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) is employed to analyze the criticality of the barriers and their relative importance. The results of the study indicate that the infrastructural and legal barriers comes out to be the two most critical among all. At last, strength of the model is also verified by performing sensitivity experiments. The findings of the developed framework are of great use to the industry managers.
