Delhivery Eyes Growth via Rapid Commerce, Reports ₹91 Cr Profit in Q1
Logistics giant Delhivery is ramping up its focus on next-gen delivery models, leveraging the rapid rise of quick commerce while expanding its partial truckload (PTL) network.
In the first quarter of FY26 (April–June), Delhivery invested ₹14 crore into two key services: Rapid Commerce, a 2-hour delivery solution, and Delhivery Direct, an on-demand intracity shipping platform. These moves signal the company’s push to cater to evolving demand from large brands in the FMCG, grocery, and packaged food sectors.
According to CEO Sahil Barua, “Quick commerce has unlocked a new channel and added demand. In just 100 days since our entry, it has already become a strong growth driver for our PTL business, especially in managing high-precision deliveries and returns from dark stores and warehouses.”
For the quarter, Delhivery reported a 68.5% rise in net profit, reaching ₹91 crore. Operating revenue also grew 6% year-on-year, totaling ₹2,294 crore.
