The sale of logistics and delivery services are the only source of revenue for Shadowfax. Co-founder and chief executive Abhishek Bansal attributed the company’s sustainable growth in FY24 to its focus on value-added services, including reverse logistics, same-day delivery, and quick commerce offered through its Flash service. “While most logistics companies have chosen to focus on a single service and transition into B2B, Shadowfax has remained in the B2C space.

Just before FY24 ended, Shadowfax scooped up $100 million Series E round led by TPG NewQuest. Recently, Uber has partnered with Shadowfax to integrate its two-wheeler fleet with UberMoto, allowing Shadowfax to offer bike-taxi services during lean hours. Reports indicate that the Bansal-led company is gearing up to launch its initial public offering (IPO). It will join industry peers like Delhivery and Blackbuck, which are already listed on the stock exchange, while another player, Ecom Express, has also secured SEBI approval for its IPO. Shadowfax has emerged as the fastest-growing logistics company in India, evident from its performance relative to competitors.
