AI summary

ICRA upgraded Blackbuck's short-term fund-based rating to A2+ from A3+ on its Rs. 43 crore bank facilities (down from Rs. 147 crore). The upgrade reflects strong business and financial profile post the hive-off of corporate freight and Rs. 550 crore IPO. H1 FY26 revenue stood at Rs. 289.6 crore with PAT of Rs. 62.9 crore. Cash position is robust at Rs. 1,025.3 crore with negligible gearing of 0.04 times.

Likely market impact
