Boult’s revenue from operations increased by 40% to Rs 697 crore in FY24 from Rs 498 crore in FY23, according to its financial statement sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). Founded in 2017, Boult Audio designs, develops and manufactures wireless earbuds, headphones, smartwatches, and speakers. Revenue from sale of these products remained the sole source of revenue.

Boult made additional Rs 5 crore from non-operating revenue which pushed its total revenue to Rs 702 crore in FY24 from Rs 501 crore in FY23. On the expense side, the largest cost component—cost of material consumed—rose 25% to Rs 402 crore, accounting for nearly 58% of total expenses.

Overall, total costs increased by 41% to Rs 699 crore in FY24. As overall costs outpaced revenue growth, Boult’s net profit declined by 37% to Rs 2.5 crore in FY24 from Rs 4 crore in FY23. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at 52.94% and 2.64%, respectively. On a unit level, Boult Audio spent Rs 1.00 to earn each rupee of revenue. As of March 2024, the company recorded current assets worth Rs 211 crore including Rs 9 crore in cash and bank balance. Boult’s inventories stood at Rs 964.5 crore during the same period—up 63% from FY23. This significant buildup suggests Boult is preparing for high-volume sales, possibly ahead of festive seasons or upcoming launches. Boult made its first recorded CSR contribution of Rs 12.23 lakh in FY24. According to TheKredible, Boult Audio has remained unfunded till date. Its co-founders, Varun Gupta and Tarun Gupta together own 49.5% of the company.
