Comment by Ashwani Gupta, Whole-time Director & CEO
“APSEZ’s ability to execute at scale with financial prudence enables us to pursue ambitious growth while leveraging balance-sheet strength and compounding cash flows. Against this backdrop, Q2FY27 was another stellar quarter. Domestic Ports continue to anchor our earnings, while International Ports, Logistics and Marine are emerging as powerful growth engines. Reflecting strong H1 performance, we are upgrading our FY27 guidance across revenue, EBITDA and capex.
As we accelerate investments toward our Ambition 2031 objectives, our balance sheet remains exceptionally strong. We have deployed ₹30,346 Cr of capex over the past two years, including higher-than-planned investments in H1, while maintaining net debt-to-EBITDA at just 1.8x, underscoring the strength of our business model and capital discipline.”

Domestic ports: The earnings anchor
Domestic Ports continued to provide scale, stability and strong cash generation. Revenue increased 13% YoY, supported by cargo growth and higher realizations. EBITDA margin remained best-in-class at 72.5%. Cargo volume during the quarter stood at 118 MMT, while APSEZ’s all-India cargo and container market share was at 27.3% and 44.4% respectively. Domestic ports’ capacity stood at 671 MMT.
During the quarter, APSEZ secured 30-year concession for Paradip Port’s CQ-I and CQ-II dry bulk berths, adding 18 MMT of mechanized capacity. The addition strengthens APSEZ’s east coast network, enhances access to mineral-rich hinterlands and supports long-term cargo growth. During the quarter, APSEZ also commenced EXIM operations at the Vizhinjam port.
International Ports: moving from scale-up to meaningful earnings contribution
The International Ports portfolio sustained its strong momentum, delivering record revenue and EBITDA of ₹1,839 crore and ₹878 crore respectively, with the EBITDA margin reaching a record 47.7%. Volumes increased to 24 MMT from 10 MMT in Q2 FY26.
The performance was led by the continued ramp-up of Colombo West International Terminal (CWIT) and Tanzania operations and contribution from NQXT Australia. CWIT handled 2 million TEUs within its first 18 months of operations, demonstrating strong customer confidence and operational scale. Building on the success of Phase I, APSEZ inaugurated Phase II, doubling CWIT’s capacity from 1.6 million TEUs to 3.2 million TEUs. The expanded terminal aims to handle nearly 25% of the Port of Colombo’s targeted capacity of 13 million TEUs by 2028.
Tanzania also delivered its highest ever quarterly volume at 265,518 TEUs, including its highest ever monthly volume at 91,625 TEUs during July 2026.
Logistics: expanding the shore-to-door opportunity
Logistics business demonstrated strong recovery from Q1FY27 that was impacted by the West Asia crisis. TEU volumes jumped 15% to 167,453 TEUs in Q2 FY27 from 145,310 TEUs in Q1 FY27. Trucking revenue was up 28% YoY. IFN revenue more than doubled YoY to ₹289 Cr.
The changing business mix reflects APSEZ’s strategy of building an integrated, asset-light logistics platform that connects ports with industrial and consumption centers across India.
Marine: building a global maritime services platform
Marine revenue and EBITDA increased 57% YoY and 32% YoY respectively supported by fleet additions (138 vessels in Q2 FY27 v. 127 in Q2 FY26), higher contribution from offshore services, and foray into subsea services.
Strong balance sheet underpins accelerated growth momentum
APSEZ's strong credit profile continues to be reinforced by the reaffirmation of its "AAA" domestic ratings by both CARE Ratings and ICRA Limited. The company's debt maturity profile remains well diversified, with an average debt maturity of 4.9 years as of September 30, 2026, compared with 5.2 years as of September 30, 2025.
