Caliber Mining & Logistics IPO Review: Our Take

Caliber Mining & Logistics operates in coal mining support services and logistics, with a contract-based business model and established relationships with Coal India subsidiaries. Between FY24 and FY26, the company reported growth in revenue, profit and net worth.

However, borrowings increased significantly in FY26, and the company depends on a limited number of major clients. Its performance may also be affected by changes in coal demand, regulations and sector conditions.
