Gameskraft achieves Rs 3,500 Cr income in FY24 with Rs 947 Cr PAT Gameskraft has consistently reported net profits of around Rs 1,000 crore over the past three fiscal years. Despite encountering various legal challenges, the Bengaluru-based company achieved a 30% year-on-year growth in the fiscal year ending March 2024. Gameskraft’s revenue from operations grew to Rs 3,475 crore in FY24 from Rs 2,673 crore in FY23, its consolidated annual financial statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies show. Gameskraft operates popular gaming apps such as Rummy Culture, Playship, Pocket 52, RummyPrime, Ludo Culture, and Rummy Time. Its revenue (gross gaming revenue) comes from a platform fee or commission charged as a percentage of the buy-in fees users invest in games. This remained its sole revenue source during FY24. The company also made Rs 46 crore from interest on fixed deposits and gain on sale of current investments which tallied its overall revenue to Rs 3,521 crore in FY24 from Rs 2,732 crore in FY23. Similar to other gaming companies, Gameskraft has over a dozen brand ambassadors, including Harbhajan Singh, Mahesh Bhupathi, and Abhinav Bindra, and has run several campaigns on social media and TV. This pushed its advertising costs up by 113% to Rs 1,315 crore in FY24 from Rs 616 crore in FY23. Gameskraft employee benefits grew 23.5% to Rs 463 crore in FY24. This includes Rs 12 crore as ESOP cost which is settled in cash. Its legal, communication, domain, web hosting, and other overheads took the overall cost up by 71.7% to Rs 2232 crore in FY24 from Rs 1300 crore in FY23. The more than two-fold increase in advertising costs outpaced Gameskraft's revenue growth, causing its profits to drop by 10.8% to Rs 947 crore in FY24 from Rs 1,062 crore in FY23. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at 69.4% and 37.46% respectively with an expense-to-earning ratio of Rs 0.64.

Diagnostic startup Healthians recorded a modest 8% year-on-year growth during the fiscal year ending March 2024. However, the WestBridge-backed company reduced its losses by 65% and achieved EBITDA breakeven in the same period. Healthians’s revenue from operations increased to Rs 243 crore in FY24 from Rs 224 crore in FY23, its consolidated annual results sourced from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) show. Healthians offers at-home diagnostic services across over 250 cities and claims to have conducted more than 10 crore tests to date. Income from running laboratories for pathological tests was the primary source of revenue for Healthians which increased 8.62% to Rs 240.5 crore in FY24. The rest of the collections were from the sale of supplements, which stood at Rs 2.2 crore in the last fiscal year. Healthians also added Rs 10 crore from non-operational activities (interest income) which tallied the overall revenue to Rs 253 crore in FY24, as compared to Rs 236 crore in FY23. The Gurugram-based company allocated 40% of its overall burn to employee benefits. This cost dropped by 11.8% to Rs 120 crore in FY24 compared to Rs 136 crore in FY23. Advertising expenses also shrank over 62% to Rs 39 crore in FY24 from Rs 103 crore in FY23. The cost of material consumed, rent, Information technology, and other overheads took the overall expenditure to Rs 298 crore in FY24. The controlled spending on advertising and employee benefits helped Healthians to narrow losses by 65% to Rs 45 crore in FY24. With this, the company has achieved EBITDA breakeven in the previous fiscal (FY24). Coming to the ratios, Healthians’ ROCE and EBITDA margins improved to -20.4% and 0% (breakeven) in FY24. It spent Rs 1.23 to earn a rupee in FY24. The company has a total current assets of Rs 62 crore including the cash and bank balances of Rs 30 crore in the previous fiscal.

According to the startup data intelligence platform TheKredible, WestBridge is the largest external stakeholder with 25% followed by Beenext and DG Ventures. Financial stability is the primary thing that a company needs to survive. It seems like Healthians got some of the mantras to how to be constant with the scale while burning low. Achieving EBITDA breakeven for the first time will give more confidence to both founders and investors. Turning this achievement into net profits is difficult yet achievable- an approach Dr. PathLabs has been executing for many years. The next two to three years will be crucial in shaping the company's trajectory.
