What is the story about?
Multimodal logistics firm Gateway Distriparks Ltd on Friday (February 6) reported its Q3 results with net profit declining 85% year-on-year to ₹68 crore from ₹455.4 crore.
Revenue grew 39.2% year-on-year to ₹560.4 crore compared with ₹402.5 crore in the same quarter last year. EBITDA increased 26.6% year-on-year to ₹122.4 crore from ₹96.7 crore. EBITDA margin stood at 21.8% versus 24% in the year-ago period.
The company announced a second interim dividend for FY26 of ₹0.75 per share, along with a special interim dividend of ₹1.25 per share. The special interim dividend is a one-time, non-recurring payout, declared in recognition of the company achieving a net debt-free position for the first time since inception and marking 30 years since the acquisition of land for its first facility, the Nhava Sheva CFS.

Profit before tax was reported at ₹-3.20 crore, with year-to-date PBT at ₹-3.48 crore. Profit after tax came in at ₹-1.87 crore, and year-to-date PAT was ₹-2.24 crore. These figures were impacted due to the consolidation of accounts after Snowman Logistics transitioned from an associate company to a subsidiary effective December 24, 2024.
An exceptional income of ₹390.77 crore arising from fair valuation of equity and assets on consolidation of Snowman Logistics Ltd, which became a subsidiary from December 24, 2024, was included in PBT and PAT of Q3 and year-to-date FY25. This exceptional income has been removed from the reported figures above to ensure comparability of numbers.
Prem Kishan Dass Gupta, Chairman & Managing Director, said, "Normally, Q3 is a weaker quarter, but our numbers continued to remain strong in line with the last few quarters. We are very optimistic about the future with the announcement of the Free Trade Agreement signed with the EU, along with the trade deal made with the USA. When all these agreements get ratified, it will lead to a big boost in global trade for India.

Additionally, we started our domestic rail services from MMLP New Ankleshwar in October 2025 and are seeing continued traction. With the above developments, we are expanding our rail capacity by purchasing 3 new high-capacity rakes as well as swapping 3 of our older rakes on lease for 3 higher-capacity rakes. With this, by the end of Q1 next year, we will have 37 rakes."
