Broker’s call: Black Buck (Buy)

Target: ₹1,315

CMP: ₹589.05

Black Buck (formerly Zinka Logistics Solutions Ltd) is entering a multifold monetisation phase. Its stabilised core business – payments and telematics (92 per cent of revenue as o n FY25) – is set to compound through market share gains, industry tailwinds, operating leverage , and robust profitability.

Meanwhile , growth initiatives like SuperLoads are monetising digital freight transactions via platform, positioning Black Buck as an end-to-end solution for 3.5 million truck operators in a $135-140 billion unorganised freight opportunity. Core profits would fuel SuperLoads ’ expansion, with an established playbook, targeting about 10x revenue by FY28 E via replication. Margin may moderate to about 28-29 per cent by FY28E amid reinvestments, but 90 per cent+ contribution margin in the core businesses should ensure robust cash flow.

The company is reshaping India’s trucking ecosystem.

We initiate with a Buy rating , with DCF-based TP of ₹81 4, assuming ₹665 for the core business and ₹149 for SuperLoads.



Key risks: Any adverse change in toll fees economics could compress take rates; Scaling up SuperLoads without slipping into capital intensity or operational complexity remains critical; and Banks, fintech, or digital freight platforms could put pressure on market share and monetisation.
