Management Commentary

Whole-time Director & CEO Ashwani Gupta called the company's performance resilient during the quarter, underscoring the disciplined execution of its strategy in a challenging geopolitical environment and ongoing global tariff uncertainty. "We surpassed our FY26 guidance, led by record 500 MMT port cargo volumes. Logistics and Marine businesses also grew rapidly at 55% and 134% respectively during the year. While this represents meaningful progress, our journey is far from complete," he said.

"PSEZ has built a strong platform to more than double revenue and EBITDA by FY31. This is underpinned by us reaching one billion tonnes of port cargo by December 2030, rapid scale-up of asset-light & asset-zero services, and expansion of marine fleet. Disciplined capital allocation will ensure that future capex is funded via internal accruals, while preserving flexibility for selective inorganic growth,” Gupta said.
