    Management comment

    Commenting on the performance,   Rampraveen Swaminathan, Managing Director and CEO of Mahindra Logistics, said, “The quarter gone by was a challenging one. Demand from the auto sector continued to be impacted due to semi-conductor supplies; and the festive season too saw moderate growth. We continued to deliver strong revenue performance, especially across Consumer, Pharma and International freight forwarding. Our margins saw pressure due to seasonal manpower costs, lower than expected demand and start-up costs for new projects. The focus continues to be on optimizing operating costs. We remain focused on delivering technology driven, integrated solutions for enterprise customers.“
