Tiger Logistics reported a 33.4% rise in Q2 revenue to Rs 225.14 crore, but net profit fell by 32.2% to Rs 5.85 crore. The decline was driven by a sharp rise in operating expenses, which climbed to Rs 209.66 crore, putting pressure on bottom-line margins for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
Tiger Logistics Q2 FY27 Results: Revenue Up, Profit Down
Revenue of Rs 225.14 crore; Net Profit of Rs 5.85 crore.
Reader Takeaway: Strong top-line revenue growth is currently being neutralized by significant escalations in operating expenses and cost pressures.
What just happened
Tiger Logistics has released its standalone financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026. While the company achieved a robust 33.4% increase in revenue from operations, rising to Rs 225.14 crore from Rs 168.73 crore in the same quarter last year, profitability failed to keep pace. Net profit for the period dropped to Rs 5.85 crore, compared to Rs 8.62 crore in the previous year, resulting in a decline in Basic EPS to Rs 0.57.
Why this matters
The results illustrate a classic challenge for logistics firms: scaling operations while managing costs. The company's total expenses surged to Rs 219.91 crore, primarily fueled by operating expenses that climbed from Rs 149.46 crore to Rs 209.66 crore year-on-year. Investors are viewing this as a warning signal that despite winning more business, the company's cost-to-income ratio is currently widening, creating margin compression.
Governance and Audit
The Board of Directors approved these results on October 16, 2026. The Audit Committee reviewed the financials, and the statutory auditor, Garg Agrawal & Agrawal, issued an unmodified limited review report, confirming that the figures comply with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS).
What to track next
The primary concern for shareholders in upcoming quarters will be margin recovery. Investors should look for management commentary on whether the recent spike in operating expenses is a one-time investment in capacity expansion or if inflationary/logistics cost pressures are becoming structural.
