Global Economic Overview
In 2024, the global economy expanded by 3.3%, marking a period of moderated growth following years of unprecedented disruption. The recovery remained steady but was shaped by structural adjustments and shifting market dynamics. Advanced economies posted stable yet cautious growth, while emerging markets saw moderate expansion amid ongoing challenges such as policy uncertainty, sluggish demand recovery, and persistent inflationary pressures.
The United States introduced a series of additional tariff measures, prompting swift and forceful responses from major trading partners. This escalation in effective tariff rates has raised concerns about the potential adverse effects on global GDP.
Inflation, a major concern in prior years, began to ease, although the decline was slower than expected in several regions. Central banks, particularly in developed economies, maintained a vigilant approach to monetary policy, balancing inflation control with broader economic stability.
Looking ahead, global growth is projected to slow further, with forecasts of 2.8% in 2025 and 3.0% in 2026. This outlook reflects the recalibration of global trade dynamics, the impact of new tariff regimes, and a continued emphasis on financial stability. As growth moderates, it will be essential for businesses and governments to remain agile and prioritise clear policy frameworks to sustain momentum over the medium term.
Indian Economic Overview
Indias economy showed remarkable resilience in FY 2024-25, achieving a GDP growth of 6.5%, according to the National Statistical Offices Second Advance Estimates. This robust performance marks a significant recovery from the slowdown of the previous fiscal year. The rebound was largely driven by strong private consumption and strategic government expenditure, which together helped stimulate demand and economic activity across sectors.
In terms of inflation, the retail price index witnessed a moderation, easing to 4.6% in FY25, down from 5.4% in FY24, reflecting a disinflationary trend. This slowdown in price rises can be attributed to a combination of factors, including the RBIs monetary policy interventions and the governments efforts to address supply-side constraints. Measures to stabilise the prices of essential commodities, particularly food items contributed significantly to easing inflationary pressures. The RBI anticipates inflation to align with its target of 4% by FY 2025-26, contingent on favourable monsoon conditions and stable global commodity prices, which would further support the countrys overall price stability.
The RBI responded to the evolving economic environment by adopting an accommodative monetary policy stance, reducing key interest rates to stimulate economic growth. On the fiscal front, the government remained committed to fiscal consolidation, targeting a fiscal deficit of 4.9% of GDP for FY 2024-25. This balanced approach aimed to promote growth while maintaining fiscal discipline, crucial for longterm economic stability.
Sectorally, key industries such as construction, trade, and financial services played a central role in driving economic growth. The governments focus on infrastructure development and policy reforms helped improve sectoral performance, fostering an environment conducive to expansion and job creation. Continued efforts to boost investment in infrastructure and promote sectoral reforms are expected to sustain momentum in these critical areas.
Looking ahead to FY 2025-26, Indias economic outlook remains optimistic. The RBIs forecast of a 6.5% growth rate for the year reflects the positive impact of ongoing structural reforms, advancements in the digital economy, and sustained investments in infrastructure. However, challenges such as global economic uncertainties and domestic issues like inflation and unemployment will require continued policy attention. To sustain growth, it will be crucial for India to navigate these complexities while maintaining a focus on inclusive and sustainable development.
Industry Overview
Rail Freight and Wagons Segment
In FY25, Indian Railways freight loading showed a modest increase of 1.7%, reaching 1,617.38 million tonnes (MT), up from 1,590.68 MT in the previous fiscal year. While this growth is positive, it represents a significant slowdown compared to the 5.4% growth recorded in FY24 and 6.6% in FY23. A large portion of this freight is still dominated by coal transportation, which now accounts for over 51% of the total freight carried by Indian Railways. This continued reliance on coal highlights the importance of the energy sector in the nations logistics infrastructure.
A key contributor to this growth was the 19.72% increase in domestic container loading, with commodities such as gunny sacks, hot rolled coils, ceramic tiles, wall care putty, and rice being major items in these shipments. Domestic coal transportation also saw a solid increase of 7.4%, while fertilisers experienced a smaller but still positive growth of 1.25%. The growth in these sectors indicates the continued strength of industrial and agricultural demand, which is critical for the economy.
Despite these positive growths, the overall freight loading growth remains low when compared to previous years. This may reflect challenges in the broader logistics and transportation sectors, including the slowdown in some traditionally high-growth segments. Nevertheless, with record-high coal transportation in FY25, the coal stock at power plants has increased by 21% year-on-year, standing at 57 MT. This increase is essential in meeting the countrys energy demand.
The Eastern Railway zone emerged as the top performer with a 16.11% growth in freight handling, while other zones such as South East Central Railway and Northeast Frontier Railway also reported growth rates of 7.28% and 4.21%, respectively. The government is looking to further expand freight capacity, with the Union Budget for FY26 projecting a freight loading target of 1,700 MT.
To support this growth, the government has introduced several initiatives aimed at improving logistics efficiency. The Gati Shakti multi-modal cargo transport policy, introduced in 2021, is expected to help reduce overall logistics costs. Furthermore, the Mission 3000 MT initiative, launched in 2022, aims to reach a freight loading target of 3,000 MT by 2027, signaling a continued push towards enhancing Indias freight capabilities.
As Indian Railways aims to meet the future growth targets, the performance in FY25 highlights both the strengths and challenges of the sector, with key sectors like coal, domestic containers, and fertilisers continuing to drive growth, while broader improvements in infrastructure and logistics efficiency remain critical for sustaining long-term progress.
Dedicated Freight Corridors (DFC) Update
In FY25, Indias Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) projects, particularly the Eastern (EDFC) and Western (WDFC) corridors, saw significant progress, with daily freight train operations increasing to an average of 391 trains in January 2025. These corridors have played a critical role in easing congestion, especially during events like the Maha-Kumbh Mela, and ensuring smooth passenger and freight services.
The Ministry of Railways is advancing plans for three new DFCs: the East-Coast Corridor (Kharagpur to Vijayawada), East-West Corridor (Palghar-Bhusawal-Nagpur-Kharagpur- Dankuni), and North-South Sub-corridor (Vijayawada-Nagpur- Itarsi). While the final approval of these projects depends on financial and technical feasibility, they are expected to further enhance freight connectivity across key regions.
The DFCs have significantly increased coal transportation, which now accounts for over 51% of total freight, contributing to a substantial rise in railway earnings. In FY25, average traffic on the DFCs increased from 247 trains per day in FY24 to 352 trains per day, with a peak of 371 trains per day in February 2025. This increase in traffic has not only improved
freight capacity but also elevated the punctuality of goods and passenger services.
Modernisation efforts are also underway, with 97 Gati Shakti Multi-Modal Cargo Terminals (GCTs) now operational, further enhancing freight handling capabilities. Additionally, 277 more GCT proposals have received in-principle approval. The Railways is also focusing on the introduction of 12,000 HP and 9,000 HP electric locomotives, as well as upgrading rolling stock and signaling systems to improve operational efficiency.

Corporate Governance
The Company upholds the belief that corporate accountability and governance are vital for long-term value creation, emphasising the importance of shareholder participation. Corporate governance practices, aligned with legal and regulatory frameworks, are fundamental to the Companys operations. The driving forces behind its governance framework are core values such as excellence, customer satisfaction, long-term stakeholder value maximisation, and a commitment to environmentally responsible behaviour.
Risk Management
The management and members of the Board periodically review the business to identify ongoing factors and changes in the external environment that may impact the Company. Certain risks have been foreseen by the management, and steps have been taken to mitigate them. The following are the key risks and their mitigation approach:
Dependence on Railways: As Indian Railways (IR) is a major customer for wagons, any adverse impact on its budget allocation will affect the order flow. The Company has partially mitigated this risk by developing wagons for private operators.
Cyclicality of the Commercial Vehicle Industry:
Demand for heavy vehicles is closely linked to overall industrial growth and is vulnerable to cyclicality in the commercial vehicle industry. In addition to rationalising production capacities, the Company is focusing on increasing revenue from other businesses such as wagons, heavy fabrication for power plants, water tankers, load bodies for automotive vehicles used by defence, and containers.
Delay in Execution of Orders: Delays in executing orders (particularly those obtained through competitive tenders) can negatively impact profitability. The Company closely monitors order execution.
Raw Material Costs: Steel accounts for a major portion of raw material costs. The Company has centralised the steel procurement function to leverage volumes for better prices and is focusing on other cost control measures. Fluctuations in foreign currency may adversely affect the import prices of raw material components.
Competition: The Company depends on load body business from certain OEM customers. These OEMs have multiple suppliers to minimise risk. There is a risk of changes in OEM policy regarding suppliers. The Company works closely with select OEMs to enhance its share of business and continues to focus on orders from certain dealers.
Increase in Interest Rates/Costs: Any increase in interest rates will adversely affect the Company. The Company is exploring ways to tighten its working capital to reduce working capital finance requirements.
Technological Disruption and Automation: As
the manufacturing sector continues to evolve with automation and digital technologies, there is a risk of falling behind in adopting industry best practices. The Company is actively evaluating opportunities to integrate smart manufacturing practices and upskilling its workforce to remain competitive.
