TVS Supply Chain swings to ₹117 cr profit, changes the guard
The logistics firm's full-year profit is a sharp reversal, but a ₹182 cr one-time JV gain did most of the work. The long-time MD is exiting.
— 4 earlier stories on TVS Supply Chain Solutions Ltd. →What's new
- TVS Supply Chain's FY26 net profit hit ₹117 cr, up from a ₹9.64 cr loss last year.
- A joint venture, TVS Industrial & Logistics Parks, booked a ₹182 cr one-time gain from listing its infrastructure trust.
- Managing Director Ravi Viswanathan will step down June 30; Vikas Chadha, the current global CEO, takes over July 1.
Why this matters
The headline profit is real, but the ₹182 cr one-time gain overshadows the core operation. The leadership change is the more lasting shift: the company is promoting its internal global CEO, Vikas Chadha, to the top job, signaling continuity after a year of restructuring.
What we're watching
- Whether the core logistics business can sustain profit without one-time boosts.
- Any change in capital allocation or JV strategy under the new leadership.
- Shareholder approval for Chadha's five-year term.
The full read
TVS Supply Chain Solutions posted a full-year net profit of ₹117 crore, swinging from a ₹9.64 crore loss, on revenue that grew 10% to ₹11,003 crore. The turnaround has a big asterisk: a ₹182 crore one-time gain from a joint venture's trust listing. Strip that out, and the core business performance is less dramatic. The other headline is a change at the top. MD Ravi Viswanathan exits June 30. His successor, Vikas Chadha, is the existing global CEO who previously ran a Dubai-based conglomerate. He gets a five-year mandate. The financials are the warm-up act. The real story is the leadership handoff after a year of restructuring.
Questions answered
- How much of the profit came from operations versus the one-time gain?
- The filing doesn't break out the core operating profit, but the ₹182 cr one-time gain from the infrastructure trust listing was a major contributor to the ₹117 cr consolidated net profit.
- Why is the Managing Director stepping down?
- The filing gives no reason for Ravi Viswanathan's departure, only that it is effective June 30, 2026.
- Who is the new MD, and what is his background?
- Vikas Chadha is the company's current global CEO and a former CEO of a Dubai-based conglomerate. He has been appointed for a five-year term, subject to shareholder approval.

- TVS Industrial & Logistics Parks, a JV, generated a one-time gain of ₹182 cr by listing its infrastructure trust on the stock exchange.
