It also earns from delivery, convenience, and packing charges, as well as franchise-related income, including one-time onboarding fees and monthly royalties. Sales of products such as cakes, flowers, gifts, were the primary contributor, accounting for 91% of the operating revenue, which increased by 22% to Rs 781 crore in FY25 from Rs 641 crore in FY24. Revenue from services grew by 25% to Rs 80 crore in FY24. Including other income of Rs 7.5 crore, the company’s total income increased to Rs 869 crore in FY25 from Rs 712 crore in FY24.

It also runs hospitality and wedding businesses through Udman Hotels and FNP Weddings and Events. It competes with the likes of IGP (Indian Gifts Portal), FlowerAura, Winni, and Archies. While the losses might seem inconsequential on a firm this size, it is also a fact that FNP doesn't really seem to have a route to improve profitability significantly. It remains in a game of incremental gains for now with the added threat of a rampant quick delivery cohort that is increasingly overlapping with FNP’s offerings.
