B2B health tech platform CitiusTech has grown steadily over the past few fiscal years. The company recently claimed that it clocked $500 million revenue during FY24 which seems plausible considering its FY23 numbers.

CitiusTech is a healthcare technology service and solutions provider which offers consulting, engineering, manufacturing and data oriented softwares to large hospitals and healthcare organizations. The sale of its software development, implementation, and support services comprised 97% of the company’s total revenue while the remaining income came from the sale and maintenance of software licenses. CitiusTech also made Rs 63 crore from non-operating activities which helped it post Rs 3,561 crore in total revenue during FY23. Similar to other technology-driven companies, its employee benefits formed 74% of the overall expenditure. This cost grew by 42.5% to Rs 2,137 crore in FY23 from Rs 1,500 crore in FY22. The firm’s burn on traveling, legal, training, consultancy, advertising, software cum licensing, and other overheads took its overall cost up by 38% to Rs 2,873 crore in FY23 from Rs 2,082 crore in FY22.

Bain Capital Private Equity-backed healthcare technology and consulting platform CitiusTech reported flat revenue growth for the fiscal year ending March 2024. However, the Mumbai-based firm’s profit surged six-fold on the back of reduction in key expenses, including consulting charges. CitiusTech’s revenue increased by 1% to Rs 3,536 crore in the last fiscal year from Rs 3498 crore in FY23, its consolidated financial statement sourced from the Registrar of Companies shows. CitiusTech is a healthcare technology services and solutions provider offering consulting, engineering, manufacturing, and data-oriented software to large hospitals and healthcare organizations. Its core business—software development, implementation, and support services—accounted for 98.8% of the operating revenue which grew by 2.49% to Rs 3,495 crore in FY24. However, revenue from the sale and maintenance of software licenses declined by 53% to Rs 38 crore. The firm also generated an additional Rs 15.7 crore from non-operating activities, which took its total revenue to Rs 3,551 crore in FY24. On the expense side, employee benefit expenses remained the largest cost driver, accounting for 75% of the expenses. This cost increased by 4.2% to Rs 2,226 crore in FY24 from Rs 2,137 crore in FY23. Depreciation expenses increased by 6.2% to Rs 136 crore, while consultancy charges decreased 7.53% to Rs 299 crore. Overall, CitiusTech’s total expenses rose 3.31% to Rs 2,968 crore in FY24 from Rs 2,873 crore in FY23. CitiusTech achieved a notable milestone as its profit after tax (PAT) spiked 6X to Rs 350.28 crore in FY24 from Rs 55.5 crore in FY23. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at 37.67% and 20%, respectively. On a unit basis, the company spent Re 0.84 to earn a rupee in FY24. The company reported Rs 458 crore in cash and bank balances and had current assets of Rs 1232 crore as of FY24. CitiusTech’s bottomline growth might have impressed, but the topline stagnation will be a worry for the firm that had targeted $500 million (Rs 4100 crores then) as recently as Sep 2023. With a $1 billion target for FY28, the firm is expected to consider all possible avenues, including acquisitions to fund growth. Baring Private Equity acquired the firm for $955 million in 2022 after it had filed for an IPO in the US, which would seem to give it at least a couple more years to expand before Barings seeks an exit via an IPO possibly.

Titan-owned CaratLane has continued its growth trajectory as its revenue grew 42% in the fiscal year ending March 2024. The company’s profit dipped marginally due to aggressive expansion, though. CaratLane’s revenue from operations grew to Rs 3,081 crore in FY24 from Rs 2,169 crore in FY23, its consolidated annual statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC) show. CaratLane sells gold, silver, and diamond jewelry for both men and women through its website and network of offline stores. As per its website, the firm operates over 262 stores across 105 cities. The sale of the jewelry was the sole source of revenue for CaratLane in FY24. The company also earned Rs 25 crore from other financial activities, taking the overall revenue to Rs 3,106 crore in the said fiscal. For the jewelry maker, the cost of procurement of material/stones was naturally the largest cost center forming 69% of the total expenditure. To the tune of scale, this cost grew 48% to Rs 2077 crore in FY24. Employee benefits, advertisement cum promotion, legal, technical, and transportation are some major overheads that pushed the total cost to Rs 2,992 crore in FY24 from Rs 2,069 crore in FY23. See TheKredible for the detailed cost breakup. Despite an impressive scale, the company reported a flat profit which stood at Rs 79 crore in FY24 as compared to Rs 82 crore in FY23.

On a unit level, it spent Rs 0.97 to earn a rupee in FY24.
