Agarwal made it clear that TCI Express has no plans for any significant investments or ventures in the e-commerce space. The company intends to stay away from the highly competitive e-commerce sector, emphasizing its dedication to its core B2B express trucking business. By maintaining this focus, TCI Express can leverage its expertise and resources to deliver exceptional service to its existing client base.

“It was a degrowth business in FY23. So, we did not have any large investments or any foothold in that, and we will stay away from that,” he added.

Talking about business, he said that the company aims to achieve a robust revenue growth rate of 15-16 percent and an EBITDA growth rate of 25-28 percent in FY24.
