Release Date: May 27, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Snowman Logistics Ltd (BOM:538635) reported a significant increase in revenue due to the consolidation of its operations, resulting in 145 crores of revenue for the full year. The company is expanding its warehouse capacity with new facilities in Kolkata and Krishnapatnam, expected to commence operations in June and July 2025, respectively. Snowman Logistics Ltd has added new clients to its 5PL business, including Unilever and an Indonesian coffee chain, which is expected to boost future revenue. The company is exploring both asset-light models and traditional CapEx for expansion, indicating flexibility in its growth strategy. Despite challenges, Snowman Logistics Ltd has maintained a strong market position, particularly in the NCR and Ludhiana regions, with regained market share in key areas. The company faced a significant decline in EBIT for its transportation services segment, dropping approximately 90% in the quarter. Margins in the warehousing segment have decreased from 18-19% to 11% over the past few years, partly due to a shift in business mix and cost pressures. The 5PL business, while growing in revenue, has seen a decline in margins due to changes in product mix and new business with lower margins. Snowman Logistics Ltd took a one-time provision hit of 12.8% growth due to a merger-related stamp duty provision, impacting financial results. The company is facing challenges in land acquisition for new satellite terminals, which could hinder future expansion plans. Q: Can you clarify the timeline for the facilities in Kolkata and Krishnapatnam, and what revenue growth targets are set with the increase in warehouse capacity? A: The Kolkata facility will start in June, adding 6,000 pallets. The Krishnapatnam facility will be operational in July. The expansion plan includes a second phase for Krishnapatnam, with potential conversion of another warehouse to a cold store. Q: Despite increased revenue in transportation services, EBIT declined significantly this quarter. What caused this? A: N. Balakrishna, CFO, explained that the decline is due to additional provisions taken as a precaution and a slight dip in margins this quarter. Q: What is the capital structure for the planned CapEx of 100 to 150 crores? A: The company plans to maintain the 80:20 model, with 80% funded through debt and 20% from internal accruals. Q: Why has the cash conversion cycle increased, and how does this fit into the working capital strategy? A: Samvid Gupta, Non-Executive Director, explained that the variation is due to business mix changes, particularly in the 5PL business, affecting terms with different customers. Q: What caused the decline in warehousing margins from 18-19% to 11%? A: The decline is due to a shift in business mix, with increased growth in the 5PL business, which has lower margins. Additionally, the park and pay model, which grew significantly, offers lower percentage margins. For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript.

Hyderabad Hospital Ex-CEO Sold Rs 1 Crore Property To Buy Cocaine, Abused Drugs 10 Times A Day
Last Updated: The doctor reportedly used cocaine 8–10 times a day, waking every 2–3 hours at night to take it. She also relied on sleeping pills, indicating severe substance dependence In a major development, the Telangana Anti-Narcotics Bureau (TGANB) has apprehended the former CEO of a renowned private hospital in Hyderabad for possession and purchase of cocaine worth Rs 5 lakh through a WhatsApp transaction. The 34-year-old female doctor, Namrata Chigurupati, was caught with 53 grams of the drug. Previously the head of Omega Hospitals, she was arrested while receiving the narcotics from a courier named Balakrishna, who is associated with Vansh Dhakkar, a supplier based in Mumbai, according to police reports. Investigations have uncovered her severe cocaine addiction, leading her to sell property valued at approximately Rs 1 crore to support her habit. Authorities also confiscated Rs 10,000 in cash and two mobile phones from Namrata Chigurupati. A case has been filed under relevant narcotics laws, and the accused have been placed in judicial custody. Initial interrogation revealed that Namrata Chigurupati confessed to having spent approximately Rs 70 lakh on drugs over a period, the police said. The doctor reportedly consumed cocaine eight to ten times a day, even waking up every two to three hours at night to take the drug. Additionally, she used sleeping pills. The arrest took place on May 9, though police had visited her home about 20 days earlier. During that visit, her drug addiction became apparent, and officers advised her family to admit her to a de-addiction centre. However, she misbehaved with the police and argued with them. On the day of her arrest, the doctor had gone to meet a courier, identified as Balakrishna Ram, who had brought cocaine from Mumbai. She had paid him Rs 5 lakh for the drugs. Police, already monitoring the situation, arrested both individuals once the transaction was completed. Further investigation revealed that Balakrishna would return to Mumbai and deliver the money to a drug supplier named Vansh Thakkar, a DJ by profession. Vansh supplied cocaine, which Balakrishna then transported to Hyderabad for delivery. It is believed that the doctor and Vansh met at a party, and Vansh remains at large. Namrata Chigurupati had contacted Vansh Thakkar through WhatsApp and placed the order, subsequently transferring the payment online. Police tracked the transaction and intercepted it. Police suspect Balakrishna was not only supplying drugs to the doctor but also to other individuals, having travelled to Hyderabad 10 times in the previous month. Initially engaged in small jobs, he later transitioned to drug trafficking. Crucial evidence was uncovered through WhatsApp chats, despite the doctor's attempt to use the 'disappearing messages' feature. One message highlighted the frequency and quantity of her drug use, indicating the extent of her addiction. First Published: May 12, 2025, 17:49 IST
