Curefoods posts Rs 746 Cr revenue in FY25, dessert-led income grows 95% Cloud kitchen brand Curefoods has filed its Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) for an Initial Public Offering (IPO). The move follows the company’s FY25 financial performance, where it reported a revenue of Rs 746 crore and a loss of Rs 170 crore, according to its balance sheet. Curefoods' operating revenue increased by 28% to Rs 746 crore in FY25 from Rs 585 crore in FY24, while its losses remained flat in the last fiscal year. Curefoods operates a multi-brand cloud kitchen business across categories like Indian meals, pizza, desserts, and health-focused food. In FY25, desserts led revenue with Rs 196 crore, followed by pizza (Rs 183 crore), Indian meals (Rs 178 crore), and healthy meals (Rs 176 crore). While desserts and pizza grew 18% and 95% YoY, respectively, the healthy segment declined by 13%. The Bengaluru-based company added Rs 29 crore from interest on financial assets which pushed its total income to Rs 775 crore in FY25. On the expense side, the cost of materials accounted for the largest share at Rs 273 crore, followed by employee benefit expenses at Rs 180 crore and commissions at Rs 137 crore. Advertising costs jumped significantly by over 64% to Rs 87 crore. Overall, the company’s total expenditure stood at Rs 944 crore in FY25, rising by 17% from Rs 807 crore in FY24. Despite the revenue growth, Curefoods’ loss remained flat at Rs 170 crore in FY25 from Rs 173 crore in FY24. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at -19% and -7.5%, respectively. On a unit level, the company spent Rs 1.27 to earn a rupee of operating revenue in FY25. As of March 2025, the Ankit Nagori-led company had current assets worth Rs 339 crore in FY25, including Rs 80 crore in cash and bank balances. Curefoods’ founder Nagori is entitled to an annual fixed remuneration of Rs 3 crore (inclusive of perquisites and retirement benefits) and an annual variable bonus of up to 20% of his remuneration. Curefoods’ operational performance improved in FY25, with average daily sales rising to Rs 2 crore from Rs 1.5 crore in FY24, amid strong consumer demand across its brands. Among its 10 key brands, Sharief Bhai, EatFit, and CakeZone led revenue with Rs 148 crore, Rs 145 crore, and Rs 102 crore, respectively. The company also added new revenue streams through the launch of Krispy Kreme operations in South, West, and North India, with Rs 15 crore in revenue in FY25 after acquiring the franchise rights. The improving numbers certainly indicate a level of maturity for the business, prompting the move to go public as well. However, risks remain, particularly in the performance of the ‘Healthy Foods’ segment and now, the Krispy Kreme franchise, which has not quite delivered in India, and continues to face a tough challenge to crack the local market. Curefoods and its multi-brand approach remains to be tested, especially with profits still distant, and H1 of FY26 will probably be a good time to evaluate if the firm has discovered a path to profitability.

Indifi’s revenue grows 22% in FY25; reports Rs 107 Cr EBITDA Gurugram-based MSME focused lender Indifi Technologies reported a 22% year-on-year growth in its operating revenue on the back of improved monetisation and stronger platform activity in the last fiscal year (FY25). Indifi’s revenue increased to Rs 360 crore in FY25 from Rs 294 crore in FY24, according to figures shared by the company. The firm also made an additional Rs 18 crore from non-operating sources, which pushed its total income to Rs 378 crore during the fiscal year ending March 2025. The firm provides loans to MSMEs, specifically micro and small businesses with turnovers ranging from Rs 50 lakh to Rs 10 crore. As per Indifi, Delhi NCR is a significant market, contributing approximately 20% of the overall business, followed by Mumbai, Bangalore, and Rajkot. On the expense side, the company claims that its cost of funds (finance cost) averaged around 10% in FY25. Overall, the Alok Mittal-led firm’s expenses rose 24% to Rs 429 crore in FY25 from Rs 346 crore in FY24. Provisioning-led losses due to wider credit stress and a change of accounting standards from IGAAP to IND AS resulted in a net loss of Rs 45 crore for the fiscal year. However, the company’s EBITDA increased to Rs 107 crore in the last fiscal year as compared to Rs 90 crore in FY24. Indifi’s co-founder and executive chairman, Alok Mittal, told Entrackr that the company has already returned to profitability starting Q2 FY26, after a period of provisioning pressure. “We are coming out of a credit cycle. Profitability is back, and growth will resume in FY26 with supply chain finance and secured lending becoming bigger parts of the portfolio,” he said. Indifi has also expanded its product portfolio, with D2C loans now contributing 15–20% of its business, supply chain finance at 6–8%, and newly launched secured lending introduced just six months ago, which is expected to scale to 10–15% of the portfolio in the next three years. “Collectively, supply chain and secured lending are projected to account for 20–25% of AUM,” added Mittal. According to startup data intelligence platform TheKredible, Indifi has raised a total of $129 million from CDC Group, Accel, ICICI Ventures, and Omidyar Network, among others. As per Mittal, the firm is not looking to raise fresh equity in the near term. “We are comfortably levered and have sufficient equity for FY26 growth. Towards the end of FY26, we may look at capital infusion for the following year,” he said.

Zepto revenue soars 2.5x to Rs 11,110 Cr in FY25 Quick commerce unicorn Zepto clocked Rs 11,110 crore (nearly $1.3 billion) in turnover in FY25, a sharp 150% jump from Rs 4,454 crore in FY24, according to regulatory filings reviewed by Entrackr. Zepto’s FY25 performance comes on the back of aggressive execution and disciplined expansion. According to earlier Aadit Palicha’s post, the company was at $3 billion in annualized gross order value (GOV) and halved its losses over the last year. In FY24, Zepto incurred losses of Rs 1,248 crore on revenue of Rs 4,454 crore. That means the startup spent Rs 1.29 to earn every Rs 1 of revenue in FY24, a figure it has reportedly improved in FY25 with better unit economics, higher fill rates, and stronger contribution margins. We are not comparing Zepto's FY25 numbers with Instamart and Blinkit due to differences in their business models and accounting practices. However, the NOV (net order value) of Blinkit stood at Rs 22,731 crore in FY25, while Swiggy’s quick commerce biz Instamart GOV was recorded at Rs 14,600 crore in the same period. Zepto's founder Aadit Palicha did not comment on the story. As per a recent report, Zepto is in talks to raise $500 million at a potential $7 billion valuation, a significant jump from its previous valuation of $5 billion when it raised $350 million in November 2024. The fresh round is expected to bolster Zepto’s runway ahead of a potential IPO in 2026, as the company pushes toward EBITDA break-even in the next 12–15 months.
