I now hand the conference over to Mr. Ankit Jain from Stellar Investor Relations. Thank you,
and over to you, sir.
Ankit Jain: Thank you, Palak. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us today. To discuss Q1
FY '27 business performance, we have with us the senior management team represented by Mr.
Himanshu Aggarwal, Whole-Time Director and Chief Financial Officer. Before we proceed

The company also undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect
developments that occur after the statement is made. Documents related to the company's

I now invite Mr. Himanshu Aggarwal to share his initial remarks on the company's performance
and then we will open the floor for Q&A. Thank you, and over to you, sir.
Himanshu Aggarwal: Thank you, Ankit. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us for the Q1 FY '27
earnings call. I'm Himanshu Aggarwal, Whole-Time Director and CFO of Tara Chand
Infralogistic Solutions Limited. I hope you have had the chance to review the results and the
presentation uploaded yesterday.
Let me be straightforward at the outset. Q1 was a transitional quarter and the reported profit
reflects that. Most of the pressure came from a sharp fall in our specialized services margin in
this quarter as well as warehousing and transportation margin, both of which I will explain,
rather than from anything broad-based in the business.
Let me walk you through what happened, what is temporary and where I expect us to be by the
end of the year. So revenue from operations grew 11% year-on-year to INR67.6 crores or about
14% if we adjust for the INR1.86 crores write-off relating to earlier years, which I'll come to
later.
EBITDA was INR21 crores at a margin of 30.7%, below both last year's first quarter and our
medium-term band of 37% to 38%. Profit after tax was at INR1.7 crores or about INR3.3 crores
if we exclude roughly INR2.2 crores of prior period items. The number I would ask you to hold
on to is our cash profit, which was INR17.6 crores for the quarter, down only 6%, well ahead of
reported profit. That gap, as you know, is depreciation of INR16 crores on the fleet that we have
built over the last 2 years. The machines are earning cash. The accounting profit is carrying the
cost of the build.

Three things that I would like to draw your attention to. First and most important, the margin in
our Specialized Services business almost halved this quarter coming in at about 10% against
roughly 18% normally.
The main reason was a client-led change in the scope of a project that we had carried in from
the previous quarter, which left our equipment and manpower idle, which was mobilized at the
client site, and it also gave us additional demobilization cost with no revenue against it. That fed
into the equipment segment more broadly with our stand-alone rental margin at 54% against our
usual 58% to 62% and utilization dropping to about 79%.
We are in active discussion with the client for an appropriate settlement of the losses this change
caused us, and I expect that to conclude in the subsequent quarter. I won't put a number on it
today. I'll update you as soon as we have it settled. I want to be clear about what this is and this
is not.
It is a specific one-off disruption on one project. It is not a change in the demand for our
equipment or in the economics of our fleet. In fact, our end market mix moved from other
segments into more into renewable energy and power sectors with renewable energy now
accounting for 31% of our rental revenue and power at 26%, together giving 57% against 24%
of last year. We have pointed our fleet at where India is building today.
Second, our Warehousing & Transportation segment had a below par quarter, revenue of just
INR18.7 crores against INR29.5 crores last year and 1.63 million tonnes of steel handled in this
quarter. EBITDA dropped to 1% from 16% for the same period last year. And last year's quarter
still carried our RINL Visakhapatnam contract, which concluded in about -- in Q3 FY '26, while
our new Dankuni Stockyard is still scaling up.
The steel movement was also subdued amid higher fuel costs in Q1 due to geopolitical reasons
as well as there was a decline in steel prices, which again led to lesser movement of steel by the
OEMs that we work with. I expect this segment to recover through the year.
Third, we cleared about INR2.2 crores of prior -- prior year items, a INR1.86 crore revenue
write-off and a INR30 lakh exceptional charge for a nonrecoverable earnest money deposit on
old warehousing and transportation works, onetime and now behind us. Through all of this, the
balance sheet strengthened.
We deployed INR42.8 crores of capex in the quarter, taking gross block to INR601 crores and
still brought our net debt to equity down to 0.87x from 0.92, which is inside our 1x ceiling. One
area that we are not satisfied with is the receivable days that still stands at about 97 days against
our target of 80. The bulk remains the RINL closure recovery, which is taking longer than I
expected. And I now see those collections coming into the H2 of this financial year, and we
remain committed to bringing the number below 80 days by the year-end.
On the outlook, let me be measured. I expect the first half of FY '27 to run below our 37% to
38% EBITDA margin band for the reasons I have described above. With margins recovering
through the second half as the affected equipment redeploys, the disputed project settles and the
new capex starts generating revenue. Certain of our specialized services revenues are expected
