At the same time, the company reported a profit of Rs 86 crore for the fiscal year ending March 2024, compared to a loss of Rs 51 crore in FY23. InsuranceDekho’s revenue from operations surged to Rs 743.6 crore in FY24 from Rs 96.5 crore in FY23, its standalone financial statement filed with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) shows. InsuranceDekho helps customers to compare and buy motor, health, travel and pet insurance. It also offers several investment plans including ULIP, child, fixed deposit, retirement plans among others. At Rs 726.61 crore, insurance brokerage was the largest revenue generator for the firm which accounted for 97.7% of the total operating revenue while ancillary services brought in Rs 17 crore. The Gurugram-based firm also made an additional Rs 41.3 crore from non operating sources, including software sales and interest income which pushed InsuranceDekho total income to Rs 785 crore in FY24. Looking at the expenses, point of sales charges was the major element, which formed 43% of the total expense. This cost surged by 36X to Rs 301 crore in FY24, from mere Rs 8.3 crore in FY23. Employee benefit expenses stood at Rs 130.26 crore, showing a 21.7% rise from Rs 107.05 crore in FY23. Manpower management was another expense that ballooned 53X to Rs 35 crore in FY24.

In October 2023, the firm secured $60 million in a Series B funding round led by Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group. It is reportedly in discussions to merge with Renewbuy—a strategic move intended to establish a major player in the insurance aggregation market and compete with industry leader PolicyBazaar. PB Fintech, the parent firm of Policybazaar closed FY24 with about Rs 3,500 crore, which places the Rs 750 odd crores of InsuranceDekho in context. A very positive context, we will add, considering the fact that Insurance Dekho has managed to turn up the numbers with profits to show as well. Something Policybazaar managed well after it crossed the Rs 2,000 crore mark. In a market that is evolving at a pace it has never seen before, the opportunities for InsuranceDekho remain immense, and another strong year in FY25 will open up the IPO route as well, in all probability, making it a formidable competitor in the market that increasingly looks like it will consolidate into a two or three horse race as far as aggregators go.

The Ayurveda Co, a D2C consumer brand, recorded a 66% year-on-year growth in its scale during the last fiscal year ended in March 2024. However, the losses for the Sixth Sense Venture-backed firm surged over three-fold in the same period. The Ayurveda Co’s revenue from operations increased by 66% to Rs 59.6 crore in FY24 from Rs 36 crore in FY23, shows its financial statement sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). The Ayurveda Co offers ayurvedic beauty and personal care products, including hair care, skincare, makeup, and wellness items. The firm's revenue is generated exclusively from the sale of these products. The Ayurveda Co earned an additional Rs 2.4 crore from interest income, which increased its total revenue to Rs 62 crore in FY24. On the expense side, the cost of materials was its largest cost center which jumped 2.4X to Rs 28.6 crore from Rs 12 crore in FY23. Its advertising and employee benefits grew by 73.3% and 80.2% to Rs 26 crore and Rs 15.5 crore, respectively, in the last fiscal year. Manpower and recruitment expenses surged to Rs 11.3 crore. In the end, the company’s total expenses increased 97% to Rs 109.5 crore in FY24 from Rs 55.6 crore in FY23. The sharp increase in expenditures resulted in a 3.2X spike in losses to Rs 68 crore in FY24, compared to a Rs 21 crore loss in FY23. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at -700% and -100.65%, respectively. On a unit level, the company spent Rs 1.84 to earn a single rupee. At the end of FY24, the Gurugram-based company reported current assets worth Rs 45 crore, including cash and bank balances worth an alarming Rs 52 lakh. The Ayurveda Co has secured approximately $16 million in funding to date, including its Rs 100 crore Series A round led by Sixth Sense Ventures in 2023. The company competes with brands like Ayurveda Experience, which reported Rs 250 crore in revenue for FY23, along with Wow Skin, Sugar, and others. The sharp rise in costs is a little surprising, even in a year just after the firm raised significant funding, as we have seen earlier. One hopes FY25 will bring not just a moderation in costs but also a disproportionate rise in topline, considering the significant funding it seems to have raised. In a fiercely competitive market with valuations sagging for all but the most profitable firms, The Ayurveda Co’s numbers are more than a little underwhelming to be honest. The firm’s only argument from here on will have to be a strong performance in FY25.
