The '''Indus Flotilla''' (sometimes the '''Indus Steam Flotilla''') was formed in 1856 to provide "the navigation of the [[Indus]], &c, by means of steamvessels [sic], between [[Kotree]] and [[Mooltan]], to be worked in connexion with the railways. Capital - 250,000''l''. Rate of Interest Guaranteed - 5 per cent." 1
== Characteristics ==
The Indus Flotilla provided the essential link between Kotree and Mooltan, and its promoters negotiated the same guaranteed rate of return as the original [[guaranteed railway]]s. Early on, it merged with the [[Punjab Railway]] and the [[Indus Flotilla]] to form the [[Sind, Punjab and Delhi Railway]].
