Medial

InsuranceDekho turned out a stellar financial performance in the last fiscal year, with revenue from operations spiking 7.7 times. At the same time, the company reported a profit of Rs 86 crore for the fiscal year ending March 2024, compared to a loss of Rs 51 crore in FY23. InsuranceDekho’s revenue from operations surged to Rs 743.6 crore in FY24 from Rs 96.5 crore in FY23, its standalone financial statement filed with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) shows. InsuranceDekho helps customers to compare and buy motor, health, travel and pet insurance. It also offers several investment plans including ULIP, child, fixed deposit, retirement plans among others. At Rs 726.61 crore, insurance brokerage was the largest revenue generator for the firm which accounted for 97.7% of the total operating revenue while ancillary services brought in Rs 17 crore. The Gurugram-based firm also made an additional Rs 41.3 crore from non operating sources, including software sales and interest income which pushed InsuranceDekho total income to Rs 785 crore in FY24. Looking at the expenses, point of sales charges was the major element, which formed 43% of the total expense. This cost surged by 36X to Rs 301 crore in FY24, from mere Rs 8.3 crore in FY23. Employee benefit expenses stood at Rs 130.26 crore, showing a 21.7% rise from Rs 107.05 crore in FY23. Manpower management was another expense that ballooned 53X to Rs 35 crore in FY24. Advertising, finance costs collectively formed Rs 98 crore. In the end, the CarDekho-incubated company’s total expenses increased by 4.6X to Rs 699.21 crore during the last fiscal year. With over 650% growth in scale, InsuranceDekho turned profitable in FY24. It posted a profit of Rs 85.71 crore in the last fiscal year from a loss of -51.59 crore in FY23. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin improved to 16.5% and 11.73%, respectively. On a unit basis, the company spent Re 0.94 to earn a rupee of operating revenue in FY24. InsuranceDekho reported a Cash and Bank Balance of Rs 37.7 crore and Current Asset of 795.32 crore in the fiscal year ending March 2024. In October 2023, the firm secured $60 million in a Series B funding round led by Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group. It is reportedly in discussions to merge with Renewbuy—a strategic move intended to establish a major player in the insurance aggregation market and compete with industry leader PolicyBazaar. PB Fintech, the parent firm of Policybazaar closed FY24 with about Rs 3,500 crore, which places the Rs 750 odd crores of InsuranceDekho in context. A very positive context, we will add, considering the fact that Insurance Dekho has managed to turn up the numbers with profits to show as well. Something Policybazaar managed well after it crossed the Rs 2,000 crore mark. In a market that is evolving at a pace it has never seen before, the opportunities for InsuranceDekho remain immense, and another strong year in FY25 will open up the IPO route as well, in all probability, making it a formidable competitor in the market that increasingly looks like it will consolidate into a two or three horse race as far as aggregators go.
