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.

Meanwhile, rival Swiggy Instamart is yet to file its Q1 FY26 financials.

Direct to consumer (D2C) mattress and sleep solution companies have been growing at a rapid clip over the past five-six years and Premji Invest-backed The Sleep Company is no exception. Keeping the momentum from FY23, its operating scale spiked 2.5X in FY24. The Sleep Company’s revenue from operations jumped to Rs 312.33 crore in FY24 from Rs 127.14 crore in FY23, its consolidated financial statement filed with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) shows. 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 company’s growth was primarily driven by its flagship mattress segment which contributed 65% in the revenue and surged by 89% to Rs 203.69 crore in FY24. It is worth noting that mattresses are the only finished goods sold by the company. The rest are traded goods which includes chairs, pillows and beds soared 5.6X to Rs 108.6 crore in FY24. The five-year-old company made another Rs 7.7 crore from interest income which took its total revenue to Rs 320 crore in the last fiscal year. On the expense side, a key contributor was the cost of materials, which grew 2.4X to Rs 144.74 crore in the fiscal year ending March 2024. Advertising expenses surged by 89.7% to Rs 101.43 crore, while employee benefits increased 3X to Rs 35.94 crore during the fiscal year. Rent, finance, and other expenses further drove the total costs up 2.2X, reaching Rs 378.68 crore in FY24 compared to Rs 166.7 crore in FY23. Unlike its revenue, The Sleep Company’s losses increased by 58% to Rs 58.69 crore in FY24 from Rs 37.06 crore in FY23. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at -26% and -15.92% respectively. On a unit basis, it spent Rs 1.21 to earn a rupee of operating revenue in FY24. The Mumbai based company reported cash and bank balances of Rs 4.15 crore and current assets of Rs 289 crore in FY24. After a period of disruption, when mattress and related firms enjoyed some serious love from investors, it’s attrition time for the segment. The legacy firms have pulled their socks, going for acquisitions, online plays, and interestingly for this writer, offline activations like never before to protect their turf. All this has meant that the consumer ‘education’ that was driving up prices for specific needs is set to moderate, as consumers graduate with the learning as well. Questions can be seen being raised on the justification of premiums for features, and expect that to translate to more margin pressure as well. For the Sleep Company and most of the others, if not sleepless nights, some long nights await as investors wait and watch now.
