Other overheads, including outsourced services, merchant onboarding, and IT expenses, pushed the companyโ€™s total expenditure to Rs 1,876 crore in the fiscal year ending March 2025. The decent growth in scale, coupled with an effective cost mechanism, helped BharatPe to reduce its losses by 82.1% to Rs 88 crore in FY25 from Rs 492 crore in FY24.

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. BigHaatโ€™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. โ€œWe 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,โ€ 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. โ€œWe are also open to acquisitions of new brands to strengthen our portfolio,โ€ 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, Indiaโ€™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.

Porter revenue from operations grew to 4,300 crore in the fiscal year ending March 2025 from Rs 2,734 crore in FY24, as per the documents. Porter provides a full-stack logistics platform to help businesses optimize their last-mile delivery operations. It generated 99% of its total operating revenue via the goods transportation services while the remaining came from platform fees and other operating activities. It primarily serves micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and has expanded its presence to over 20 cities in India. According to the sources, the company managed to cut costs and reported a profit after tax (PAT) of Rs 54 crore in FY25. During FY24, the Bengaluru-based firm cut down its losses by 45% to Rs 95.7 crore. Queries sent to Porter on Monday did not elicit a response until publication of the story. We will update the story in case it responds. Porter has raised over $332 million to date, including its $200 million Series F round in May this year, with Kedaara Capital and Wellington Management leading the investment. Prior to this, the company secured $100 million led by Tiger Global in 2021.

Porter earlier operated with minimal competition from VC-funded players, but the landscape has shifted with Uber, Delhivery, and Rapido (in the two-wheeler category) entering the space.
