Delhivery:Delhivery is witnessing a strong festive-season momentum, driven by a surge in electronic payments and GST-led consumption rebound, with rising volumes across retail, e-commerce, and automotive segments boosting utilization and network efficiency. The INR14b Ecom Express acquisition enhances Delhivery’s rural coverage, strengthens network density, and drives cost synergies, consolidating its leadership position and improving competitiveness amid 3PL industry consolidation and pricing normalization. Delhivery’s revenue/EBITDA/APAT are projected to grow at 14%/38%/53% CAGR over FY25–28, with EBITDA margin expanding to 7.3% by FY28, supported by operating leverage, tech integration, and moderating capital intensity.PN Gadgil:PNG delivered a strong 2QFY26 performance, with revenue (ex-refinery) rising 31% YoY to INR21.7b, supported by strong festive demand and new store additions. The retail segment grew 29% YoY, led by a 29% QoQ SSSG, and broad-based growth across gold, silver, and diamond categories. Management highlighted that festive campaigns and aggressive store expansion—entering new markets like Indore, Kanpur, and Lucknow—significantly boosted brand visibility. E-commerce and franchise revenues more than doubled YoY, reflecting PNG’s effective omni-channel strategy. The company plans to add 13–15 new stores in 2HFY26, further strengthening its retail footprint.(Disclaimer: Recommendations and views on the stock market and other asset classes given by experts are their own.
