What the record says.
Delhivery reported a steady Q1 FY25 with revenue of ₹2,170 crore, up 12.6% YoY, driven by strong growth in Part Truckload (PTL) and Supply Chain Services (SCS). EBITDA margin improved to 4.5%, while adjusted EBITDA turned positive at 1.7%. Express Parcel margins held at 18%, with yield expansion from heavy goods mix. PTL revenue grew 25% YoY with service EBITDA at 3.2%, and SCS grew 26% YoY. Management expressed confidence in peak season demand and guided for Express margins to remain in the 18-20% range, while PTL margins are expected to converge with Express over time. Key risk: continued insourcing by large e-commerce customers like Meesho could pressure Express Parcel volumes.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management expects Express Parcel service EBITDA margins to stay stable at 18-20% in the short to medium term, with potential pricing benefits passed to customers to drive volume.
- Part Truckload margins are expected to reach Express-like levels (18%+) as scale benefits and cost advantages materialize, potentially even higher.
- SCS has a strong pipeline across auto, electrical, and FMCG sectors, with anticipated solid growth going forward.
Risks flagged
- Meesho's increasing self-logistics could reduce volumes for Delhivery, though management notes they are satisfied with current volumes and the strategy is fluid.
- Competitors like Blue Dart may price aggressively in the D2C segment, but management believes their cost leadership and service quality provide a buffer.
- Quick commerce growth could shift volumes away from traditional e-commerce, but management views the impact as narrow and limited to specific categories.
Key quotes
- Our objective is to reduce the cost of logistics for all of our customers linked to the volume that they provide to us.
- The unit economics for sub-1 hour or sub-30-minute delivery for low-value products with not significant value density and distances higher than three or four kilometers in an urban environment like India, are going to work out.
- We are the lowest cost operator in this space. Over a period of time, as we've discovered cost efficiencies in our network, we have passed those benefits on to our customers.
