Amid ownership transition, Sirona’s revenue drops to Rs 77 Cr in FY25
Medial

Amid ownership transition, Sirona’s revenue drops to Rs 77 Cr in FY25 The Deep Bajaj-led firm was acquired by the Good Glamm Group in October 2024 in a deal valued at around Rs 450 crore. Amid this transition, the Gurugram-based company’s operating scale took a hit during the fiscal year ended March 2025. Feminine hygiene brand Sirona’s journey over the past year has seen an ownership change that affected the brand’s course. However, amid challenges at Good Glamm, Sirona’s founders bought back the brand earlier this year at a sharply lower valuation of around Rs 150–180 crore. Sirona’s revenue from operations declined 23% to Rs 77 crore in FY25 from Rs 100 crore in FY24, according to its standalone financial statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). Founded in 2015, Sirona offers a range of feminine hygiene products, including PeeBuddy (a stand-and-pee device), herbal period pain patches, menstrual cups, period stain removers, and sanitary disposal bags. The sale of products remained the sole contributor to the company’s operating revenue. Sirona also recorded Rs 3 crore from other operating income, taking its total revenue to Rs 80 crore in FY25. On the cost side, advertising continued to be the largest expense head, accounting for around 30% of the company’s overall expenditure. However, Sirona significantly reduced its marketing spends, which declined 36% to Rs 26 crore in FY25. The cost of materials also dropped to Rs 26 crore in line with the reduced scale of operations. Warehousing and employee benefit expenses stood at Rs 10 crore and Rs 5 crore, respectively. Overall, Sirona managed to cut its total expenditure to Rs 91 crore in FY25 from Rs 146 crore in FY24. Despite the decline in revenue, the company narrowed its losses substantially, primarily due to lower advertising and employee expenses. Sirona’s losses reduced to Rs 22.6 crore in FY25 from Rs 45.5 crore in FY24. At the unit level, Sirona spent Rs 1.18 to earn every rupee of operating revenue during FY25. As of March 2025, the firm reported current assets worth Rs 29 crore, including cash and bank balances of Rs 12 crore. Operating in a market where Pee Safe has been the notable performer with a profitable journey, Sirona’s woes are obviously attributable to the sale that didn’t work out. Now that the founders are back in full control, it remains to be seen if they have the drive to help take it where they dreamt of. The feminine hygiene space is a growing segment, and there is genuinely a long way to go.

Fintrackr All Stories Drishti IAS posts Rs 364 Cr revenue and Rs 61 Cr PAT in FY25 Offline coaching firm Drishti IAS has reported operating revenue of Rs 364 crore in FY25, a 10% decline from Rs 405 crore in the previous year, according to its audited financial results. The company’s EBITDA declined to Rs 77 crore from Rs 127 crore, while profit after tax fell 32% to Rs 61 crore from Rs 90 crore year on year. The company attributed the revenue dip to Ind-AS based accounting adjustments and a broader normalisation in the offline coaching sector following the post Covid surge in enrolments. Drishti IAS also cited the stabilisation of classroom admissions across major coaching hubs as student numbers return to pre-Covid levels. Importantly, the relocation of its primary Mukherjee Nagar centre to a compliant facility in Noida during FY25 resulted in a revenue loss of over Rs 30 crore. Founded in 1999 by Vikas Divyakirti, Drishti IAS focuses on UPSC and PCS exam preparation and operates eight centres across Delhi, Noida, Prayagraj, Lucknow, Jaipur, Indore, Ranchi, and Patna. Drishti IAS is expanding across offline and online segments. It opened new centres in Ranchi and Patna in FY26, launched lower-priced studio-based online programmes, and entered Judiciary, Teaching Exams, and SSC categories. The firm also plans to expand into Banking, Defence, and School education, said CEO Vivek Tiwari through a press statement. The company has appointed Vipan Joshi as Chief Financial Officer. Joshi previously served as CFO at Aakash Institute. Originally an offline only coaching institute, Drishti IAS launched its online arm in FY21. In FY25, nearly one third of its revenue came from online operations, with the remainder from offline centres. It is worth noting that PhysicsWallah was in talks to acquire Drishti IAS, but the discussions were eventually called off, with both companies choosing to pursue independent growth strategies.
