Zepto revenue soars 2.5x to Rs 11,110 Cr in FY25

Zepto revenue soars 2.5x to Rs 11,110 Cr in FY25 Quick commerce unicorn Zepto clocked Rs 11,110 crore (nearly $1.3 billion) in turnover in FY25, a sharp 150% jump from Rs 4,454 crore in FY24, according to regulatory filings reviewed by Entrackr. Zepto’s FY25 performance comes on the back of aggressive execution and disciplined expansion. According to earlier Aadit Palicha’s post, the company was at $3 billion in annualized gross order value (GOV) and halved its losses over the last year. In FY24, Zepto incurred losses of Rs 1,248 crore on revenue of Rs 4,454 crore. That means the startup spent Rs 1.29 to earn every Rs 1 of revenue in FY24, a figure it has reportedly improved in FY25 with better unit economics, higher fill rates, and stronger contribution margins. We are not comparing Zepto's FY25 numbers with Instamart and Blinkit due to differences in their business models and accounting practices. However, the NOV (net order value) of Blinkit stood at Rs 22,731 crore in FY25, while Swiggy’s quick commerce biz Instamart GOV was recorded at Rs 14,600 crore in the same period. Zepto's founder Aadit Palicha did not comment on the story. As per a recent report, Zepto is in talks to raise $500 million at a potential $7 billion valuation, a significant jump from its previous valuation of $5 billion when it raised $350 million in November 2024. The fresh round is expected to bolster Zepto’s runway ahead of a potential IPO in 2026, as the company pushes toward EBITDA break-even in the next 12–15 months.

BigBasket’s B2C losses widen sharply in FY25; consolidated revenue declines

BigBasket’s B2C losses widen sharply in FY25; consolidated revenue declines
Medial

BigBasket’s financial performance deteriorated in FY25, with its core B2C unit posting a steep rise in losses even as overall revenue declined. The platform, backed by Tata Digital, continues to face pressure on multiple fronts, from quick commerce rivals to evolving consumer expectations. According to Tata Sons’ FY25 annual report, Innovative Retail Concepts, which runs BigBasket’s consumer-facing business, saw its operating revenue shrink by 2.7% to Rs 7,673.4 crore from Rs 7,885 crore in FY24. At the same time, its loss widened sharply to Rs 1,850 crore, compared to Rs 1,267 crore in the previous fiscal year, marking a 46% year-on-year increase. The red ink highlights the cost burden BigBasket is incurring as it attempts to reposition itself from a scheduled grocery delivery service to a quick commerce platform. Increased spending on warehousing, logistics, discounting, and customer retention likely contributed to the widening losses. In contrast, Supermarket Grocery Supplies, the company’s B2B arm which handles procurement and backend operations, recorded a 6.9% drop in its revenue to Rs 2,227 crore in FY25, compared to Rs 2392 crore in FY24. However, its losses narrowed down to Rs 102 crore in FY25 from Rs 128 crore in FY24. The two entities cumulatively clocked Rs 9,900 crore in revenue in FY25 from over Rs 10,277 crore in the previous year ended March 2024. More importantly, losses across both businesses totaled Rs 1,952 crore, marking a significant deterioration from FY24’s performance. The performance slide comes despite years of strategic restructuring. BigBasket has merged BB Daily into its core app, launched its quick commerce vertical BB Now, and initiated backend tech and supply chain upgrades. However, execution delays, coupled with the rapid scale of Blinkit, Instamart, and Zepto, have left it lagging in the under-30-minute grocery race. Tata Digital, which acquired a majority stake in BigBasket in 2021, continues to support the business, holding an 84.23% stake. But with losses now deepening and growth stagnating, the platform’s transition into a sustainable quick commerce engine appears far from complete. As demand shifts towards instant delivery, BigBasket’s ability to stem its B2C bleed while maintaining backend stability will determine whether it can claw back relevance in one of India’s most competitive internet categories.

Employee benefit expenses saw a surge of 37% YoY to Rs 119 crore in Q1 FY26 compared to Rs 87 crore in Q1 FY25. Depreciation and amortization costs rose 20% to Rs 48 crore, while other operational costs jumped nearly 31% to Rs 166 crore. Overall, Ather’s total expenditure grew 54% to Rs 851 crore in Q1 FY26, up from Rs 551 crore in Q1 FY25.

The Sleep Company continued its strong growth streak in the fiscal year ending March 2025. It recorded 60% year-on-year revenue growth and achieved a 34% reduction in EBITDA losses during the last fiscal year. The Sleep Company’s revenue increased to Rs 499 crore in FY25 from Rs 312 crore in FY24, according to its provisional financial statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). The Sleep Company offers mattresses, pillows, cushions, bedding, and office chairs. Apart from its own website, the firm sells its products across e-commerce platforms including Amazon and Flipkart. The Sleep Company’s total costs rose 46% to Rs 550 crore in FY25 from Rs 376.8 crore in FY24. The cost of material formed the largest expense, accounting for nearly 40% of the total spent. This cost increased by 52% to Rs 220 crore in FY25 from Rs 145 crore in FY24. Marketing spend grew modestly by 5% to Rs 105 crore, while depreciation expenses more than doubled to Rs 12 crore. Other expenses, which include logistics, technology, and other costs added another Rs 213 crore in FY25. Despite the jump in expenses, the company managed to narrow EBITDA losses by 34% to Rs 39 crore in FY25. Its EBITDA margin also improved significantly to -7.82% from -18.91% in the previous fiscal. The Sleep Company’s ROCE remained broadly flat at -30.03% in FY25 as compared to -29.91% in FY24. On a unit basis, it spent Rs 1.10 to earn a rupee of operating revenue in the last fiscal year. As of March 2025, the company held cash and bank balances of Rs 25 crore, up from Rs 4.2 crore a year ago. Its total assets were recorded at Rs 291.5 crore while current assets stood at Rs 186.5 crore. According to TheKredible, The Sleep Company has raised a total of $105 million of funding till date, having Fireside Ventures and Premji Invest as its lead investors who own 21% and 25% of the company respectively. The company will be keeping more than just a wary eye on competitors like Wakefit, that are headed towards a possible IPO and the kicker it will provide to their marketing focus. The category itself is almost unrecognizable today in terms of players, distribution channels and sheer variety of options for consumers when compared to even 5 years back. So far, that has ensured the whole pie expands, but it won't be long before the industry runs up against a wall too high to jump over. Be it replacement inertia or unorganised players selling same size mattresses at a 30% lower price point. A differentiator like its SmartGrid technology works for a very narrow segment of the market, if at all. Going offline is also expensive, leaving the Sleep Company with some very tough choices to make to reach profitability soon.
