shipments and international express courier segment, the Company, during the year under review,
acquired a controlling stake of 51% in Committed Cargo Solutions Private Limited ("CCSPLâ), thereby
making CCSPL a subsidiary of the Company with effect from August 14, 2025.

technology-enabled systems, established global service partnerships and digital infrastructure,
including freight management systems, Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) and real-time tracking, to
provide time-definite, door-to-door international shipping solutions. The acquisition is intended to
complement the Companyâs existing freight forwarding capabilities and enable it to address a broader
range of customer requirements across the logistics value chain.
Further, in continuation of this strategic initiative and with a view to strengthening its international
footprint in the express logistics segment, CCSPL incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary in the
United Arab Emirates under the name and style of Ezigo FZE ("Ezigoâ). Ezigo has been established
with a specific focus on developing the international express logistics business and establishing a

and express delivery industry. The teams have been entrusted with a focused mandate to identify
and pursue opportunities in the evolving international express logistics market and to strengthen the
Companyâs capabilities and reach across international markets.
The Board views the development of the International Express business as an important step in the
Companyâs continuing evolution as an integrated logistics service provider. This new business
vertical is expected to complement the Companyâs existing operations, diversify its service portfolio
and provide additional avenues for sustainable growth. The Company intends to develop this
business in a prudent and calibrated manner by leveraging its operational capabilities, customer
relationships, technology and global service networks.
The global logistics environment continues to evolve amid geopolitical developments, changing trade
patterns, supply-chain disruptions and volatility in international trade. Against this backdrop, the
Company remains focused on operational resilience, service quality and customer satisfaction, while
continuing to expand its service portfolio, strengthen its international presence and enhance
operational efficiency.
The Board believes that the Companyâs industry experience, human resources, customer
relationships and expanding capabilities provide a strong foundation for pursuing opportunities across
the domestic and international logistics and cargo sectors. The Company will continue to evaluate
growth opportunities prudently, with due regard to market conditions, operational requirements and
long-term value creation. The Company remains confident that its strategic initiatives will strengthen
