Revenue guidance

Category 3
  • Long-term prospects for e-commerce growth in India remain strong, given the market is significantly underpenetrated.
  • Revenue growth primarily driven by the number of transactions or shipments processed on the Uniware platform.
  • Continued acquisition of new enterprise clients; Q4 FY '25 saw the highest-ever addition of 125 clients.
  • Incremental growth expected from cross-selling and upselling opportunities across Uniware, Shipway, and Convertway platforms.
  • Expansion into new use cases such as B2B workflows, quick-commerce capabilities, and simplified order management to drive revenue.
  • The Shipway courier aggregation business, with a large INR4,000 crore TAM, is expected to grow and contribute meaningfully.
  • Pricing per transaction estimated to remain stable around INR1.12 to INR1.2, with some potential upward pressure from price escalation clauses.
  • Short-term market headwinds persist, but disciplined execution and product innovation aim to sustain positive growth trajectory in FY '26 and beyond.

Margin guidance

Category 3
  • Unicommerce expects to deliver revenue growth higher than the current INR180 crore run rate entering FY '26.

  • Adjusted EBITDA expanded 56.3% in FY '25 and margins improved, reflecting operating efficiencies from a stable platform with limited incremental investments.
  • PAT grew 34.3% in FY '25, expected to benefit going forward from continued revenue growth and disciplined cost management.
  • Growth drivers include new client acquisitions, cross-selling existing and newly acquired platforms (Shipway, Convertway, UniReco), and enhancements addressing e-commerce complexities.
  • Introduction of price escalation clauses in contracts is likely to support steady revenue per transaction levels.
  • Long-term confidence in India's underpenetrated e-commerce market underpins positive earnings outlook.
