Question 1:
What is the cumulative capex till FY28, and will the revised INR855 crore capex budget for FY25 be fully utilized?
Answer:
Capex for FY25 is revised to INR855 crore, with similar annual spending (~INR1,000 crore) expected for the next three years. Management is confident about utilizing the revised FY25 budget fully.
Question 2:
What volume growth is expected in Q4 FY25 for EXIM and domestic segments?
Answer:
Double-digit growth is anticipated in both EXIM and domestic segments for Q4, though specific figures were not disclosed.
Question 3:
Why did depreciation decrease, and what caused the EXIM realization decline?
Answer:
Depreciation reduction (INR79 crore for 9 months) stemmed from revised wagon life assumptions. EXIM realization drop was attributed to volume declines, not pricing changes.
Question 4:
How will the Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) impact market opportunities?
Answer:
DFC reduces transit times (e.g., 38 hours vs. 55 hours by road for Dadri-Mundra), enhances rail competitiveness, and drives modal shift. Post-DFC commissioning, rail coefficients could rise to 40-45% at ports like JNPT.
Question 5:
What were Q3 originating volumes?
Answer:
EXIM originating volumes: 525,812 TEUs; Domestic: 117,644 TEUs; Total: 643,456 TEUs.
Question 6:
Why did domestic realization increase despite lower EXIM performance?
Answer:
Improved domestic realization resulted from reduced empty runs and competitive pricing for backhaul routes.
Question 7:
What is CONCOR's market share at key ports?
Answer:
9-month FY25 market shares: JNPT (58%), Mundra (38%), Pipavav (48%). EXIM rail coefficient: 55.28%.
Question 8:
How will Gati Shakti policy affect land license fee (LLF) expenses?
Answer:
CONCOR opted against migrating brownfield terminals to Gati Shakti due to uncertainties. LLF expenses (INR350 crore FY25E) may rise 7% annually but could be mitigated via land surrenders.
Question 9:
What explains the disparity between domestic handling (24.7% growth) and originating volume (7%)?
Answer:
Higher handling growth included third-party railway rake handling at PFTs (e.g., Paradeep), not captured in originating volumes.
Question 10:
What drove EBITDA/TEU decline in Q3?
Answer:
EBITDA/TEU drop stemmed from lower EXIM volumes. Management advised using originating volumes (not handling) for accurate analysis.
