Mahindra Logistics business impacted due to Covid-19

Mahindra Logistics experienced a significant impact on its business in the last two months due to lockdowns imposed on various states. But now, it's on the way to a stronger recovery path after expecting its momentum to consolidate in the next half of this fiscal year.

According to media reports, due to Covid-19 lockdowns and restricting easing in various states, the company is carrying positivity in its business outlook from June to the third and fourth quarter of FY22.

Mahindra Logistics is a logistic service provider that offers solutions in two business segments: supply chain management and enterprise mobility. The company provides supply chain solutions to vast industry verticals like engineering, consumer goods, telecom, pharmacies, commodities, and e-commerce.

Explaining the challenges in the recent months, MD and CEO of Mahindra Logistics, Rampraveen Swaminathan, said that the company faced an impact due to the lockdowns regarding demand beyond many geographies. He also said that e-commerce was restricted only to essential services.

According to Swaminathan, the situation will improve from the second quarter, with the second wave of the pandemic coming under control.

Mahindra Logistics has redesigned most of its operating processes and warehouse to raise production and to lower the availability of manpower to reduce the impact of the probable third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The company cannot fully mitigate the broader set of regulatory actions. If there is a larger lockdown, the company cannot mitigate that impact, and there is something out of its direct control, Swaminathan said.
