Exclusive All Stories Exclusive: BigHaat crosses Rs 1,100 Cr revenue in FY25; turns EBITDA profitable Full-stack agritech platform BigHaat Agro posted a flat scale with single-digit year-on-year growth in the fiscal year ending March 2025. However, the Bengaluru-based company managed to narrow its losses by over 25% during the last fiscal year. According to its co-founder Sateesh Nukala, BigHaat has crossed the Rs 1,100 crore revenue threshold in FY25 from Rs 1,050 crore in FY24. BigHaat’s revenue split consists of 85% of revenue coming from farm produce sales, with agri-inputs, which is direct to farmers, and digital only contributing 15%. The platform now counts 3 million monthly active farmers and reported 15% gross margins in FY25, said Nukala in an interaction with Entrackr. Nukala highlighted that exports and advanced processing, a high-margin vertical launched in FY25, now contribute 20% to its monthly revenue. “We have reduced our net loss to Rs 25 crore in FY25 from Rs 35 crore in FY24 and turned EBITDA positive for the last three quarters,” said Nukala. He also added that BigHaat is among the few agritech startups to achieve profitability at scale with 6x revenue-to-capital efficiency. As per Nukala, the company is targeting Rs 1,400 crore in FY26, with spices emerging as a key growth driver. “We are also open to acquisitions of new brands to strengthen our portfolio,” he emphasized. BigHaat has raised around $25 million to date. In January 2022, it raised Rs 100 crore led by JM Financial. Beyond Next Ventures, Ashish Kacholia, Ankur Capital, and others are some notable investors for the firm. This contrasts with larger peers. DeHaat, India’s most valued agritech startup, clocked Rs 2,675 crore revenue in FY24 but with losses of over Rs 240 crore. Ninjacart, backed by Walmart and Flipkart, crossed Rs 2,000 crore revenue in the same fiscal but recorded a Rs 259.6 crore loss. By combining steady topline growth, improving margins, and sustained EBITDA profitability, BigHaat is positioning itself as one of the few agritech ventures balancing scale with financial discipline, while many peers continue to burn capital at larger scales.

Smartworks, a leading managed workspace platform, reported a 32% growth in operating revenue to Rs 1,374 crore in FY25. However, despite the strong topline growth, the company’s losses widened 26% in FY25. Smartworks’ revenue from operations increased by 32% to Rs 1374 crore in FY25 from Rs 1039 crore in FY24, according to its financial statement sourced from RHP. SmartWorks provides flexible office space for large enterprises, SMEs, and high-growth startups and leverages its robust phygital platform to deliver fully serviced, tech-enabled, flexible, and affordable workspaces. Lease rentals accounted for over 93% of its operating revenue, which rose by 29% to Rs 1,289 crore in FY25. Other sources included design and fit-out services at Rs 35 crore, ancillary services at Rs 49 crore, and a marginal Rs 1 crore from software fees. Smartworks added another Rs 36 crore from non-operating sources, which pushed its total revenue to Rs 1410 crore in FY25. On the expense side, the largest cost head was depreciation, which increased 35% to Rs 636 crore, followed by operating expenses of Rs 416 crore. Finance costs remained relatively stable at Rs 336 crore, while employee benefit expenses rose to Rs 65 crore. Overall, total expenses increased by 26% to Rs 1,489 crore in FY25 from Rs 1,180 crore in FY24.

However, the company reported a positive EBITDA of Rs 893 crore in FY25 with an EBITDA margin of 63.3% and ROCE of 7.48%.

Fintrackr All Stories DeHaat cuts losses by 15% to Rs 207 Cr in FY25 Full-stack agritech marketplace DeHaat has crossed the Rs 3,000 crore gross merchandise value (GMV) in FY25, riding on a steady uptick in its agri-output business. The growth also helped the company narrow its losses by 15% during the fiscal year ended March 2025. According to its consolidated annual financial statements filed with the Registrar of Companies (RoC), DeHaat’s gross revenue grew 12.5% to Rs 3,010 crore in FY25, up from Rs 2,675 crore in FY24. The bulk of DeHaat’s earnings came from the sale of agri-outputs, including spices such as red chili, turmeric, cumin, and coriander, marketed under its in-house brand Farm Plus. This vertical contributed close to 80% of its overall revenue, while the sale of seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides (agri-inputs) accounted for the remaining share. DeHaat also earned Rs 30 crore from interest on deposits and gains on investments, pushing its total revenue to Rs 3,040 crore in FY25 against Rs 2,720 crore in FY24. On the expense side, procurement of agri materials remained the largest cost driver, forming 83% of overall expenditure. This cost went up by 11% to Rs 2,708 crore in FY25, in line with the company’s scale. The agritech firm also trimmed its employee benefit expenses by 15% during the year, while spending on promotions, branding, freight, legal, and other overheads took the total expenditure to Rs 3,257 crore in FY25. Caveat: We have not considered the income and expense of Rs 576 crore and Rs 888 crore from fair value adjustment of preference shares in both FY25 and FY24 due to their non-cash nature. As per the filings, DeHaat reported a net profit of Rs 370 crore in FY25. However, after accounting for the fair value adjustments, the firm ended the fiscal year with a net loss of Rs 207 crore, an improvement over the Rs 245 crore loss it posted in FY24. At the unit level, DeHaat spent Rs 1.08 to earn a rupee of revenue in FY25. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at -36% and -5.78%, respectively. The company closed the year with total current assets of Rs 1,149 crore, including Rs 78 crore in cash and bank balances. Earlier this year, DeHaat acquired AgriCentral from Olam Agri in an all-cash transaction. According to startup data platform TheKredible, the agritech firm has raised $230 million to date and is valued at over $700 million. The company counts Peak XV, Prosus, Sofina Ventures, Lightrock, RTP Global, and Temasek, among others, as its investors. The numbers tell the story of a firm on the verge of sustainable profits, but not the arduous route it has had to take to get there. Dehaat’s mainstay now, of selling spices and staples including lentils, is a business capable of delivering steady, but low margin growth at best. That will not thrill investors looking for a bigger breakthrough in the agritech space from the firm. Like many other firms that started off with a model closer to farmers than consumers, Dehaat has also found itself veering towards the latter to make the numbers add up. A higher share of e-commerce also doesn't bode well for long-term margins. Dehaat needs to pull out a higher margin and sustainable win soon to provide an exit that delivers for its investors.

Online travel aggregator (OTA) Ixigo’s revenue from operations grew 26% to Rs 206.47 crore in Q2 FY25 as compared to the same quarter of FY24. The growth was steered by the flight and bus segment. The flight gross transaction value grew by 43% YoY, while the bus GTV increased by 46%. The company’s contribution margin also improved by 24% to Rs 91.08 crore in Q2 FY25, compared to Rs 73.67 crore in Q2 FY24, the company said in a stock exchange filing. However, the contribution margin as a percentage of revenue from operations slightly decreased from 45% in Q2 FY24 to 44% in Q2 FY25. The Gurugram-based company generated the majority (53.5%) of its operating revenue from train ticketing amounting to Rs 110.4 crore in Q1 FY25. Flight and bus booking services contributed 27% and 19.3% to the company’s coffers, respectively. The firm’s operating expenses rose in Q2 FY25, reflecting increased investments in growth. Employee expenses and marketing costs contributed to this spike, which was necessary to support the company’s expansion in user acquisition and market penetration. Despite the rise in costs, EBITDA saw a sharp increase of 655%, reaching Rs 22.4 crore in Q2 FY25, compared to Rs 2.96 crore in Q2 FY24. Adjusted EBITDA also jumped 326% to Rs 20.99 crore in Q2 FY25. Ixigo profit after tax (PAT) declined by 51%, from Rs 26.70 crore in Q2 FY24 to Rs 13.08 crore in Q2 FY25. This decline was primarily due to a deferred tax charge of Rs 5.26 crore in Q2 FY25.
