The agency has also affirmed the company's short-term rating at 'CARE A1+'.
Care Ratings stated that the reaffirmation of ratings of Aegis Logistics (ALL) continues to reflect its established presence in the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and liquid bulk logistics business, diversified service offerings, experienced management, and strategically located terminals across key ports in India.
The ratings also factor in the company's long-standing relationships with major customers and suppliers, comfortable capital structure, and strong debt service coverage indicators.
The ratings also draw comfort from significant improvement in its liquidity post successful initial public offering (IPO) of Aegis Vopak Terminals (AVTL) in Q1 FY26 leading to ALL becoming net debt negative as of 31 December 2025.
CARE Ratings notes that the company is undertaking significant expansion to strengthen its LPG and liquid terminal infrastructure across multiple locations.
The company is also developing India's first independent ammonia storage terminal at Pipavav, which is expected to be commissioned by Q1 FY27. These projects form part of the broader infrastructure expansion through its joint venture (JV) company, AVTL, to enhance the group's storage capacity and terminal handling capabilities.
Timely execution and scaling up of these projects are expected to drive revenue growth and improve capacity utilisation over the medium term.
However, ratings factor in potential volume constraints arising from ongoing geopolitical risks, particularly disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, which could impact LPG trade flows and throughput volumes.
Additionally, the company's exposure to the relatively low-margin LPG sourcing business, and volatility in global energy prices and demand fluctuations across end-user industries, remains a constraint.
ALL's ability to navigate potential supply disruptions, ramp up utilisation of new capacities, and sustain profitability and coverage metrics will remain key monitorables going forward.
Aegis Logistics is an integrated oil, gas, and chemical logistics company, which specialises in LPG import, storage, distribution, and bulk liquid storage and terminalling services for petroleum, petrochemicals, and chemical products. Its infrastructure includes LPG and liquid storage terminals at major ports such as Mumbai, Haldia, Pipavav, Kochi, Kandla, Mangalore, and JNPT.
The scrip had advanced 2.13% to end at Rs 612.05 on the BSE yesterday.

Valued Customer,
BOB Capital Markets Limited (BOBCaps) is firmly committed to the safety of your wealth. We would like to bring to your notice certain precautions that you certainly must take against potential tele-fraudsters/ unscrupulous and unregistered portfolio managers:
ALWAYS AVOID
We would like to caution you against such fraudulent calls and SMSes and urge you to be alert. Follow the golden rule:
Do not share your Login Credentials or Passwords with anybody
BOBCaps employees / representatives never ask for your password.
Certain tele-fraudsters / unscrupulous and unregistered portfolio managers call customers or SMS them on the pretext of providing investment tips and lure them to invest through their bogus firms by promising huge profits.
Such deceitful callers ask the customer to share his/her login credentials with passwords to allow trading in their accounts, assuring huge returns.
Often trades done in the customer’s accounts are far from the best interest of the customers. Holdings of customers are often sold and with the funds, trades are then placed in illiquid securities at unrealistic prices.
At times, the holdings of customers are sold at prices detrimental to the customer. The so-called “portfolio manager” assures profits, which naturally does not materialize. Customers are deceived into providing access to their trading accounts, thereby allowing such fraudsters access to funds and securities available to execute trades, injurious to the customer’s interest.
In our continuous effort to keep you safeguard from the market related frauds and increase awareness while conducting trades, we request you to go through the Press Release issued by the NSE and would request you to ensure that you do not engage with the individuals and entities mentioned below:
