Note: None of the Directors on Infomerics Board are members of rating committee and thus do not participate
in discussion or assignment of any ratings. The Board of Directors also does not discuss any ratings at its
meetings.
Rationale
The reaffirmation of the rating reflects Tiger Logistics India Limited (TLIL)’s established
presence in the freight forwarding and logistics solutions segment, its asset‑light business
model, moderate capital structure and experienced management.
The ratings, however, remain constrained by the inherent susceptibility of the logistics industry
to global trade cycles, geopolitical developments, fluctuations in freight rates, and intense
competition from both organized as well as unorganized players. The factors continue to
constrain company's profitability. Additionally, the business remains dependent on sustenance
of healthy cargo volumes and efficient working capital management, any deterioration in which
could adversely impact cash flows and financial flexibility.
Outlook: Negative
The Negative outlook factors in material deterioration in TLIL’s operating profitability in
FY2026 along with stretch in receivable cycle. Inability to improve EBITDA/TEU levels and
working capital efficiency could exert further pressure on cash accruals and coverage metrics,
potentially leading to a deterioration in the credit profile.

Key Rating Drivers with Detailed Description
Strengths
Improvement in scale of operations in FY26:
During FY26, the company reported total operating income (TOI) of Rs.572.82 crore, growing
at 6.8% YoY (FY25: Rs.536.31 crore), driven primarily by a 34.5% YoY increase in TEU
volumes to ~92,600 units while the average realization declined by ~20.5%.
The company is projected to achieve a Total Operating Income (TOI) of ~Rs. 650 crores in
FY27 and Rs. 700 crores in FY28, reflecting growth of ~13% and 10% respectively, which is
expected to be supported by improvement in realizations
Asset‑light model and moderate leverage levels:
TLIL continues to operate on an asset‑light model, thereby resulting in low reliance on long
term debt. As on March 31, 2026, total debt stood at Rs.50.28 crore, largely comprising
working capital borrowings while adjusted tangible net worth improved to Rs.159.81 crore,
supported by profit accretion. TOL/TNW remained moderate at 0.64x as on March 31, 2026
(0.42x as on March 31, 2025). Average fund‑based working capital utilisation remained
comfortable at ~63% during H2FY26, providing adequate liquidity cushion.
Established logistics franchise with diversified service offerings:
Incorporated in 2000, Tiger Logistics India Limited is a multi‑vertical logistics solution
provider offering ocean and air freight forwarding, customs clearance, project logistics, supply
chain consulting, cold chain logistics, warehousing and distribution. The company derives a
significant portion of revenues from ocean freight forwarding linked to import‑export trade,
supported by long‑standing relationships with shipping lines and a diversified customer base.
Weaknesses
Sharp deterioration in profitability and unit‑level economics in FY26:
Despite volume‑led revenue growth, profitability weakened materially in FY26. EBITDA
margin moderated to 4.6% in FY2026 from 5.76% in FY2025 primarily on account of inability
to fully pass through elevated freight, rerouting, and logistics costs arising from geopolitical
disruptions (including West Asia / Hormuz route issues) amid intense competitive pressures.
----------------Page (2) Break----------------
Page | 3
www.infomerics.com
Press Release
In Q4FY26, margins compressed sharply to ~1.0%, with EBITDA/TEU declining to Rs.656,
down 83% YoY.
The EBITDA margin is expected to increase significantly to around 7% levels in FY27 and
FY28, supported by cost past through effected since April 2026. Going forward, company’s
ability to improve and sustain EBITDA/TEU above Rs. 2,500 level would remain a key
monitorable which should support gross cash accruals, reduce reliance on working capital
borrowing and underpin debt service coverage ratios.
Elongation in working capital intensity, weakening of coverage indicators:
Debtor levels increased sharply to 98 days (FY25: 70 days). The elongation in receivables is
attributable to the relaxation of credit terms extended to customers to support volume growth,
along with acquisition of new customers, particularly in the renewables segment, which
typically operate on relatively longer credit cycles. Elevated receivables, coupled with
compressed margins, have adversely impacted operating cash flows and liquidity buffers,
increasing dependence on short‑term borrowings.
Owing to margin compression and higher working capital borrowings, interest coverage
declined to 5.74x in FY26 (FY25: 10.87x), while gross cash accruals reduced to Rs.22.39 crore
(FY25: Rs.27.76 crore).
High competitive intensity:
The logistics and freight forwarding industry remains highly competitive and susceptible to
volatility in global trade flows, freight rates, and geopolitical developments. TLIL’s
performance remains sensitive to such external shocks, particularly during periods when cost
escalation cannot be promptly passed on to customers.
Liquidity – Adequate
The liquidity position of the company is expected to remain adequate, supported by satisfactory
cash flow from operations and low scheduled debt repayment obligation of Rs. 0.29 crore in
FY27 and Rs. 0.29 crore in FY28.
The company’s liquidity profile as of March 2026 is supported by unencumbered FDRs of Rs.
40.19 crore and bank balances of Rs. 1.26 crore.

Press Release
Upward Factors
➢ Sustained improvement in unit‑level economics, with EBITDA/TEU improving towards and
sustaining above ~Rs.2,500, leading to strengthening of cash accruals and coverage indicators.
➢ Improvement in working capital management resulting in reduction of debtor days and reliance
on short‑term borrowings.
Downward Factors
➢ Continued pressure on margins due to inability to pass through cost increases or adverse
trade/geopolitical conditions.
➢ Further elongation in receivables or significant increase in working capital intensity,
weakening liquidity and financial risk profile.
