However, the Mumbai-based company has cut losses by 38% due to a sharp reduction in finance and depreciation costs during the last fiscal year. PharmEasy’s operating revenue increased 3.7% to Rs 5,872 crore in FY25 from Rs 5,664 crore in FY24, according to the company’s financial statements reviewed by Entrackr. PharmEasy offers pharmaceutical products, along with diagnostic services and teleconsultations, through its mobile and web apps. PharmEasy derived about 87% of its operating revenue, or Rs 5,097.5 crore, from the sale of pharmaceutical and cosmetic products, while the remainder came from services such as diagnostics, teleconsultations, delivery, warehousing, and commissions from facilitating pathological tests. The firm also earned Rs 108 crore in non-operating income from interest and asset gains, taking its total revenue to Rs 5,898 crore in FY25.

The company’s overall expenses also remained flat at Rs 7,208.5 crore in FY25. While the company’s revenue and expenses remained largely unchanged in FY25, a reduction in exceptional items such as early redemption charges on non-convertible debentures, goodwill impairment and others helped narrow its losses by 38% to Rs 1,572.3 crore compared to Rs 2,533.5 crore in FY24. PharmEasy’s EBITDA (loss) stood at Rs 553.5 crore while its ROCE and EBITDA margin improved marginally to -13.9% and -15.71%, respectively.
