Exclusive: Porter turns profitable with over Rs 4,000 Cr revenue in FY25 After recording a 56% year-on-year growth in FY24, on-demand intra-city logistics platform Porter has delivered another strong performance in FY25, posting nearly 50% growth and turning profitable, according to three sources and some documents reviewed by Entrackr. Porter revenue from operations grew to 4,300 crore in the fiscal year ending March 2025 from Rs 2,734 crore in FY24, as per the documents. Porter provides a full-stack logistics platform to help businesses optimize their last-mile delivery operations. It generated 99% of its total operating revenue via the goods transportation services while the remaining came from platform fees and other operating activities. It primarily serves micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and has expanded its presence to over 20 cities in India. According to the sources, the company managed to cut costs and reported a profit after tax (PAT) of Rs 54 crore in FY25. During FY24, the Bengaluru-based firm cut down its losses by 45% to Rs 95.7 crore. Queries sent to Porter on Monday did not elicit a response until publication of the story. We will update the story in case it responds. Porter has raised over $332 million to date, including its $200 million Series F round in May this year, with Kedaara Capital and Wellington Management leading the investment. Prior to this, the company secured $100 million led by Tiger Global in 2021. Soon after the unicorn round, Porter also provided an exit to its early backer Peak XV, which generated returns of over Rs 1,200 crore on an investment of Rs 116 crore. Porter earlier operated with minimal competition from VC-funded players, but the landscape has shifted with Uber, Delhivery, and Rapido (in the two-wheeler category) entering the space.

M League earns Rs 560 Cr from overseas in FY25, turns profitable According to its consolidated financial statements filed with Singapore’s ACRA, M League’s revenue from operations surged to Rs 1,423 crore ($166.7 million) in FY25 from Rs 1,092 crore ($127.9 million) in FY24. M League, the parent company of Mobile Premier League (MPL), has recorded one of its strongest financial performances in FY25, clocking over 30% year-on-year growth and turning profitable at the group level. The turnaround, however, comes at a time when the company has had to shut down its real-money gaming (RMG) operations in India. Gaming remained the primary revenue driver, contributing $165.8 million, while the rest came from advertising and other operating activities. India was the largest market, accounting for around 60% of total revenue, followed by Europe and the US. Its German subsidiary, GameDuell Studios, a wholly owned unit, contributed nearly $60 million revenue in FY25. Advertising formed the largest expense, making up 42% of the total and rising 32.8% to $70 million. The company managed to trim employee benefit expenses by 20.5% to Rs 364 crore, while other operating costs, including payment gateway, server hosting, and professional fees, pushed total expenditure to $166.2 million (Rs 1,419 crore) in FY25. M League reported a net profit of $4.2 million (Rs 36.5 crore) in FY25, a sharp turnaround from a loss of $44.8 million (Rs 383 crore) in FY24. Its EBITDA margin turned positive at 2.45% during the last fiscal year. While FY25 marked a milestone year, the company’s outlook in India remains uncertain after the government’s move to outlaw real-money gaming. A company spokesperson told Entrackr that the latest results highlight the benefits of M League’s diversified strategy. “We didn’t put all our eggs into the India RMG basket. We have bought ourselves time and can act from a place of near-EBITDA breakeven at a group level while continuing to invest in growth areas such as GameDuell, Xsquads, and other ventures,” the spokesperson added. GameDuell grew 64% during FY25, while M League had already made early inroads into the US and Brazil by March 2025. International expansion is part of the company’s long-term vision to host a digital Olympics with players from across nations. M League maintained that its global portfolio gives it the flexibility to balance investment and returns. GameDuell has been profitable for years despite its rapid growth, and at the group level, M League has the ability to generate EBITDA whenever it chooses. M League refrained from sharing near-term projections, stating that it is too early to forecast annualized revenue after shutting down its India operations.

From a regional perspective, North America emerged as Capillary’s largest revenue contributor, accounting for 56.6% of the total revenue in FY25, up from 48% in the previous fiscal. EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) made up 19%, while Asia-Pacific’s share declined to 24% from 33% in FY24. While a detailed expense breakdown isn’t disclosed, the company’s return to profitability suggests improvements in cost structure and stronger monetization of its offerings. The company posted a net profit of Rs 14 crore in FY25, a significant improvement from the Rs 68 crore loss in FY24. Meanwhile, its EBITDA stood at Rs 78.5 crore in FY25, with a margin of 13%.
