Shares of logistics major Delhivery are projected for a significant 22% upside, according to brokerage firm Motilal Oswal (MOSL).

The brokerage firm anticipates robust financial performance, projecting a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 13% for revenue and an impressive 33% for EBITDA between fiscal years 2026 and 2028.

MOSL highlighted Delhivery's strong positioning for future expansion, driven by momentum in its core transportation businesses and a clear strategic focus on profitability. The Express Parcel and PTL (Partial Truckload) segments are expected to continue their strong volume growth, contributing to healthy service EBITDA margins, which the company aims to sustain at 16-18% over the next two years.

Furthermore, new service offerings like 'Delhivery Direct' and 'Rapid' are poised to unlock long-term growth opportunities in the on-demand and time-sensitive logistics sectors.
