  • Delhivery is an online logistics service provider which covers express parcel delivery, heavy goods delivery, part truckload (PTL) freight, truckload (TL) freight, supply chain solutions, cross border solutions etc.
  • In this note, we talk about the updates from its RHP.

Delhivery IPO: Yet to Convincingly Deliver

By Arun George

  • Delhivery is the largest and fastest-growing 3PL express parcel delivery player in India. It has cut its IPO raise from Rs74.6 billion ($1 billion) to Rs52.4 billion ($0.7 billion).
  • In Delhivery IPO Initiation: Can It Deliver?, we noted that the fundamentals are mixed as it has been unable to leverage strong growth to deliver profits or cash generation.  
  • In this note, we look at the RHP which discloses 9MFY22 results. We continue to believe the negatives outweigh the positives. We are inclined to give the IPO a pass.

Return of the Genteel Low Profile Bankers

By Hemindra Hazari

  • Past phenomenal success of HDFC Bank (HDFCB IN) led to a belief that an oppressive work culture is the driver for performance and premium valuation
  • Present CEOs at ICICI Bank Ltd (ICICIBC IN) and HDFC Bank believe a genteel and more humane approach can deliver similar results.
  • Market has rewarded ICICI Bank and penalised HDFC Bank. Both CEOs are putting in place the building blocks for future sustained performance
