Snapdeal records Rs 384 Cr revenue in FY24, adjusted EBITDA loss drops by 88% E-commerce marketplace Snapdeal delivered steady financial results in FY24 as its revenue from operations increased by 2.1%, rising to Rs 379.76 crore in FY24. The company’s cost-reduction measures led to its adjusted EBITDA loss dropping by 88% from Rs 144 crore in FY23 to Rs 16 crore in FY24. It also improved its operating cash flows during the last fiscal year. Snapdeal’s revenue from operations increased by 2.1%, rising to Rs 379.76 crore in FY24 from Rs 371.96 crore in FY23, according to its consolidated financial statements filed with the RoC. Snapdeal’s primary revenue streams include marketing services, e-commerce enablement, and other ancillary sources. Marketing services continued to be the largest contributor, generating Rs 252.55 crore, though it witnessed a dip of 9.6% compared to FY23. Its enablement revenue increased by 14.8% to Rs 103.36 crore, reflecting the platform’s growing traction among value-focused sellers. Additionally, revenue from other sources surged over 8X to Rs 23.85 crore in FY24.

The company’s improved performance was visible in the 43.2% reduction of loss to Rs 160.38 crore in FY24.

As per the filings, Snapdeal reduced its stake in Unicommerce, generating Rs 33 crore from a secondary sale of 3.4% stakes in May/June 2024 prior to the IPO and an offer for sale of 9.2% stake for Rs 81 crore in the IPO completed in August 2024.
