Delhivery Share: How the logistics company could gain as Meesho stabilises its business

Synopsis: The company stock has given a compounded return of 9 percent in the last 3 years. Delhivery is India’s largest tech-driven logistics provider, has been benefiting from Meesho’s order volumes while diversifying into supply chain and international freight.

Delhivery Ltd is India’s largest fully integrated logistics provider, offering a tech-driven operating system for commerce. Its services include express parcel delivery, PTL/FTL freight, warehousing, and cross-border logistics. Leveraging an asset-light model and proprietary data analytics, it serves e-commerce giants, SMEs, and enterprises across more than 18,500 pin codes.

The Meesho and Delhivery relation

The relationship between these entities is pivotal; Meesho’s massive order volumes representing nearly 30  percent of India’s e-commerce shipments directly dictate Delhivery’s capacity utilization. With Delhivery’s Express Parcel segment generating 60  percent of its income, where Meesho was a key customer. But couple of year back Meesho had done aggressive logistics insourcing via Valmo which had created a significant pressure on Delhivery’s overall margins and competitive market share.

Consequently, since then Delhivery has been more diversified into supply chain services and international freight to offset this kind of risk, and the company saw this strategic pivot as an essential decision for long-term stability.

Brokerage View

Recently UBS suggested a significant turning point for Delhivery as it moves past recent operational headwinds. The brokerage has maintained a Buy rating with a target price of Rs 600, implying a potential upside of approximately 40  percent from its current levels of 427 . This optimistic outlook is driven by the transition from a period of disruption caused by the rapid rise of quick commerce toward a phase of profitable growth and more predictable market volumes.

Industry dynamics appear to be turning in Delhivery’s favor as competitors grapple with capital constraints and mounting margin pressures. With players like Shadowfax now listed, the ability to offer aggressive discounts may reduce, as the focus shifts toward sustaining margins and delivering consistent returns to investors.

Additionally, the brokerage highlighted a potential stabilization in Meesho’s logistics strategy. Following its public listing, the company has been prioritizing cost optimization, and the earlier move toward insourcing logistics could see a reversal, which may benefit third-party logistics providers like Delhivery.

The consolidation of major players like Ecom Express should reduce irrational pricing in the sector. Analysts expect this environment to help Delhivery improve its yields and expand its operating profit margins, which reached 7  percent in Q3FY26.

The YoY Net Profits growth is at 60 percent, going from Rs 25 Cr in Q3FY25 to Rs 40 Cr in Q3FY26, while it is important to note that the company had made a loss of 50 Cr in Q2FY26.
