About the Company

Apana Logistics Limited provides logistics support for handling and transportation of containers. The company operates a fleet including reach stackers, forklifts, and truck-trailers. Services include container handling at CFS/ICD/port, road transportation, cargo handling at third-party warehouses, and repair, operation & maintenance of trucks-trailers. As of March 31, 2026, the company owns a fleet of 33 truck-trailers, 5 reach stackers, and 2 cranes.

Financial Highlights

Metric FY2026 FY2025 FY2024
Revenue from Operations (₹ crores) 30.85 21.43 20.10
Total Profit (₹ crores) 5.86 3.11 3.00
Total Assets (₹ crores) 36.84 28.95 25.05

Objects of the Issue

  • Funding capital expenditure requirement towards purchase of reach stackers: ₹25.00 crores. The company proposes to utilize funds for purchasing up to 9 reach stackers to enhance cargo handling capacity, improve operational efficiency, reduce reliance on third-party fleets, and ensure timely fulfillment of customer orders.
  • General Corporate Purposes: ₹5.04 crores. The company intends to deploy funds for general corporate purposes including meeting operating expenses, strengthening business development and marketing capabilities, and meeting exigencies in the ordinary course of business.

Risk Factors

  • High Customer Concentration Risk: Top 5 customers represented 97.79%, 98.85%, and 94.66% of revenue from operations in fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024 respectively.
  • Dependence on Third-Party Service Providers: Payments to network partners and vendors represented 47.13%, 30.87%, and 51.68% of revenue from operations in fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024 respectively.
  • Missing Historical Corporate Records: The company is unable to trace some historical records including minutes of Board meetings and shareholder meetings.
  • Significant Related Party Transaction Exposure: Related party transactions accounted for 14.46%, 17.59%, and 20.26% of revenue from operations in fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024 respectively.

Will the complete lack of interest from QIBs and NIIs signal a potential listing discount or volatility for Apana Logistics shares?

How might the company's heavy reliance on just five customers (contributing ~95% of revenue) impact its long-term revenue stability post-IPO?

Given the significant portion of funds allocated to purchasing reach stackers, what is the projected timeline for these assets to improve operational efficiency and margins?
