Blue Dart announces 9% to 12% price increase

Blue Dart Express Limited

will increase prices across its domestic portfolio by 9% to 12% from January 1, 2027. The increase will vary according to the product and customer shipping profile. Customers signing up between October 1 and December 31, 2026, will be exempt from the upcoming increase. Blue Dart said the revision is intended to offset higher labour and utility costs while supporting continued investment in its delivery network and technology. The company reported Q1 FY27 consolidated revenue of ₹1,657.7 crore and net profit of ₹88.5 crore. EBITDA increased 33.5% year-on-year to ₹261.2 crore. What I’m watching: The effect of the price increase on shipment volumes, revenue growth and operating margins from January 2027. Stance: Tracking whether higher pricing offsets the increase in operating costs without materially affecting volumes.
