Blue Tokai posts Rs 216 Cr revenue with improved EBITDA margin in FY24 Blue Tokai Coffee Roasters has achieved over five-fold growth in the past four fiscal years. The brand's revenue grew from Rs 41 crore in FY21 to Rs 75 crore in FY22, Rs 127 crore in FY23, and Rs 216 crore in FY24. Blue Tokaiโ€™s revenue from operations grew 70% year-on-year to Rs 216 crore in FY24 from Rs 127 crore in FY23, its annual consolidated financial statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies show. Income from the sale of coffee accounted for 93% of the overall operating revenue which stood at Rs 201 crore in FY24. The rest of the collections come from the sale of bakery products. Blue Tokai claims to have 130 outlets and plans to expand to over 350 locations in the next 3 years. The company also added Rs 5 crore from interest on deposits and gains on mutual funds, which tallied its overall income to Rs 221 crore in FY24 and Rs 129 crore in FY23.

Its legal, advertising, communication, travel, and other overheads increased the total expenditure by 66% to Rs 285 crore in FY24 from Rs 172 crore in FY23.
