Delhivery reported a significant improvement in profitability for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, with EBITDA rising 103% to ₹764 crore. The logistics company’s revenue from services grew 17.4% to ₹10,486 crore, driving an expansion in EBITDA margins to 7.3% from 4.2% in the previous year.
The company’s profit after tax (pre-exceptional items) more than doubled to ₹347 crore, compared to ₹167 crore in FY25. This performance was supported by strong volume growth in its core express parcel business, which saw shipments increase 40.2% to 1,054 million units. Part Load Trucking (PTL) also contributed to the upside, with revenue growing 19.3% to ₹2,254 crore and service EBITDA reaching ₹248 crore.
Financial Performance Overview
The following table summarizes key financial metrics for FY26 against the previous two fiscal years:
| Metric | FY24 | FY25 | FY26 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue from services (₹ crore) | 8,142 | 8,932 | 10,486 |
| EBITDA (₹ crore) | 127 | 376 | 764 |
| EBITDA Margin (%) | 1.6 | 4.2 | 7.3 |
| PAT pre-exceptional items (₹ crore) | (227) | 167 | 347 |
| Free Cash Flow (₹ crore) | (273) | (252) | 89 |
Operational Highlights and Capital Efficiency
Delhivery expanded its infrastructure footprint, increasing automated sort centres to 47 and gateways to 129. The company also strengthened its position in the third-party logistics sector through the acquisition of Ecom Express during FY26. Despite this expansion, capital intensity decreased, with free cash flow turning positive at ₹89 crore after being negative in the prior two years.
Working capital efficiency improved markedly, with receivable days dropping to 44 days in March 2026 from 57 days in March 2025. This reduction, alongside stable payable days at 33, indicates stronger collection cycles and better liquidity management. The company maintained a robust cash balance of ₹4,555 crore as of March 2026.
What the Numbers Show
A critical divergence exists between top-line growth and bottom-line acceleration. While revenue grew 17.4%, EBITDA surged 103%. This disproportionate jump suggests that operating leverage is kicking in significantly; fixed costs are being spread over a larger volume base, particularly as express parcel volumes rose 40.2%. Furthermore, the shift from negative free cash flow in FY25 (-₹252 crore) to positive FCF in FY26 (₹89 crore) signals that the heavy infrastructure investment cycle is maturing into cash generation, even as the company pursues inorganic growth via acquisitions.
