6 logistics companies with upside potential of up to 38%:
First thoughts on the street was that a sharp rise in the crude oil price is inevitable. Initial reaction was pretty much on the same line, however that spike did not sustain beyond one day.
Is that an indication that the crisis in the most oil sensitive part of the world was not able to push oil prices higher than what would make them rise.
While the whole of the Indian economy would like oil prices to stay low, one sector which would like it more than any other sector is logistics. Especially in the midst of the festive season. logistics sector has been impacted in a major way by technology.
Not only the hyper local delivery, but even larger inter-state movement of goods is a space where tech has played its role in disrupting the matrix. That is probably the reason why some large players in the logistic space have also restructured their business model to ensure that both the operations and valuations are not impacted.

Some demerged their business which focused on e- commerce business, while others decided to focus on their core large logistic operations.
