The Gurugram-based company’s revenue from operations jumped 25% year-on-year to Rs 4,657 crore, up from Rs 3,730 crore in FY24, according to its consolidated financial statements filed with the Registrar of Companies (RoC). Spinny primarily generates its revenue from used car sales, accounting for 97.7% of its operating income (Rs 4,553 crore) from this segment, marking a 25.7% YoY rise during FY25. The balance came from commissions, support services, and advertising. Beyond operations, the company booked Rs 89 crore in non-operating income from interest on deposits, corporate bonds, mutual fund gains, and fair value adjustments. This pushed its total income to Rs 4,746 crore in FY25 from Rs 3,822 crore in FY24.

Spinny’s direct cost stood at Rs 147 crore while its advertising and promotion costs reduced by 11.3% to Rs 125 crore in FY25. Other overheads, including information technology, legal, travelling, and rent, took the total cost to Rs 5,170 crore in FY25. The decent growth in its revenue helped Spinny to cut down its losses by 28.3% to Rs 423 crore in FY25 from Rs 590 crore in FY24. The company has also improved its per unit expense to revenue ratio in FY25, which was recorded at Rs 1.11. In March this year, the company closed $170 million round this year led by Accel Leaders Fund. According to startup data intelligence platform TheKredible, Spinny has raised around $676 million to date, including investors like Tiger Global, Accel, Elevation Capital, and others.
