Yatayat Corporation, a Gujarat‑based logistics company, has filed its draft prospectus to launch an IPO that could raise more than ₹100 crore.
What the IPO Looks Like
The company plans to issue up to 77 lakh new equity shares and sell up to 56 lakh existing shares held by a promoter. In total, up to 1.33 crore shares may be offered. A pre‑IPO placement of up to ₹100 crore could also happen, which would reduce the number of fresh shares issued.
How the Money Will Be Used
Proceeds from the fresh issue are earmarked mainly for working‑capital needs and general corporate purposes. The shares, once issued, will be listed on both the BSE and NSE.
About Yatayat Corporation
Yatayat operates in the road‑logistics segment, focusing on Full Truck Load (FTL) services that move freight point‑to‑point across major corridors in India. The firm runs 34 branches, one warehouse, and works in 12 states.
- Cross‑border export service to Bangladesh (Benapole).
- Part‑Truck, Express, Over‑Dimensional, and Multimodal freight options.
- Custom House Agent and freight forwarding through a wholly owned subsidiary.
The business follows an asset‑light model: it owns a small fleet but partners with many third‑party fleet owners, allowing it to scale without heavy capital outlay.
Clients, Volumes and Growth
Yatayat serves sectors such as agriculture, construction, chemicals, energy, engineering, IT, metals, textiles and more. Cargo volumes have risen sharply, from 5.7 lakh metric tonnes in FY23 to 11.03 lakh tonnes in FY25. For the quarter ending June 30 2025, the company moved 2.74 lakh tonnes.
Financial Highlights
- Revenue: ₹448.13 cr in FY25, up from ₹348.34 cr in FY24 and ₹269.09 cr in FY23.
- Profit after tax: ₹30.01 cr in FY25, versus ₹14.95 cr in FY24 and ₹6.40 cr in FY23.
- Net margin improved to 6.70% in FY25 from 4.29% in FY24.
- Q4 FY25 revenue: ₹119.68 cr; profit after tax: ₹7.83 cr.
Why the IPO Matters
The global logistics market, worth $10.9 trillion in 2019, is expected to grow to $21.3 trillion by 2030. Yatayat’s expanding fleet, cross‑border capabilities, and strong financial trajectory position it to benefit from this long‑term demand surge.
Lead Manager
Unistone Capital has been appointed as the sole book‑running lead manager for the issue.
Investors should weigh Yatayat’s growth story, its asset‑light approach, and the broader logistics boom before deciding whether to participate in the IPO.
