Kaushalya Logistics opens 3 new CFA depots in Bihar for Dalmia Cement

Kaushalya Logistics has expanded its footprint in Bihar with the launch of three new depots in Siwan, Gopalganj, and Chapra. Set up under the Carrying and Forwarding Agent (CFA) model, the facilities have been commissioned for long-standing client Dalmia Cement Bharat Limited (DCBL).

The new additions mark the company’s 6th to 8th depots opened in the current financial year 2025–26, underscoring its focus on scaling up operational capacity and extending market reach. Collectively, the three depots are expected to handle approximately 15,000 metric tonnes of cargo per month, significantly boosting service efficiency in the region.

With this development, Kaushalya Logistics now manages a network of 110 depots and rake points across India. The move further strengthens its partnership with DCBL and reinforces the company’s role as a key logistics enabler in the cement industry’s supply chain.

Commenting on the development, Uddhav Poddar, Managing Director, Kaushalya Logistics, said: “We are proud to expand our operations with the addition of depots in Siwan, Gopalganj, and Chapra for Dalmia Cement Bharat Limited. This expansion is a testament to our continued focus on strengthening our presence in key markets and enhancing our operational reach to support the growing needs of our clients.”

He also mentioned that these new depots would significantly improve the company’s service capabilities in the region, enabling faster turnaround, better inventory management, and increased operational efficiency. This development aligns with its broader vision of building a future-ready, scalable, and tech-driven supply chain network.

“As we move forward, we aim to deepen our infrastructure, broaden our footprint across strategic locations, and remain agile in adapting to industry demands. Our long-term goal remains clear — to emerge as a leading enabler of supply chain excellence in the cement industry across India,” added Poddar.

Kaushalya Logistics, formerly a construction firm, shifted to logistics in 2010 and adopted its current name in 2023. It serves leading cement companies, including DCBL, ACC, Ambuja Cement (Adani Cement Group), and JK Cement. Alongside CFA operations, it offers Full Truck Load (FTL) services and integrated logistics and C&F solutions, with plans to expand into new verticals.

In FY25, the company reported revenue of Rs. 1,24,631.36 lakhs, EBITDA of Rs. 2,525.51 lakhs, and net profit of ₹1,184.58 lakhs. It continues to focus on infrastructure growth and operational efficiency.
