Medial

Care.fi secures Rs 7.5 Cr in debt from Vivriti Capital Healthcare-focused fintech startup Care.fi has secured Rs 7.5 crore in debt capital from Vivriti Capital. This latest investment follows its previous funding rounds, which included Rs 8 crore in debt capital raised from Wint Wealth and Caspian, along with $2.5 million (around Rs 21 crore) in debt from Trifecta Capital and UC Inclusive Credit. In total, the group has raised approximately Rs 29 crore to date. The fresh funding will be utilized to accelerate its aim to empower Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) for hospitals and expand the reach of RevNow, Care.fi said in a press release. Co-founded in 2021 by Sidak Singh and Vikrant Agarwal, Care.fi aims to weed out the hassles of insurance claims, which remain a complex challenge for hospitals, often leading to delayed discharges, revenue leakages, and operational inefficiencies. According to the Gurugram-based company, its AI-driven RCM platform, RevNow, is making a significant impact by expediting claim settlements and ensuring hospitals receive payments within 3–5 days post-discharge. It enables 30-minute patient discharges by automating final billing and approvals, drastically reducing wait times. RevNow optimizes hospital workflows with real-time query notifications, automated responses, and integrated mailing services. It also enhances financial transparency by providing real-time reconciliation of cash flows at the entity, unit, and claim levels, offering hospitals greater visibility. “Since our inception, we have focused on solving critical operational pain points in hospital revenue management. With RevNow, we are setting new benchmarks in claims processing efficiency. This latest funding will enable us to scale further, helping hospitals optimize financial workflows while ensuring better patient experiences. As the healthcare ecosystem grows, we aim to continue innovating and improving revenue realization for providers,” said Sidak Singh, co-founder of Care.fi. Care.fi claims that it is handling over Rs 800 crore in claims across over 300 hospitals and auditing more than 50,000 claims. The platform also aims to expand RevNow’s capabilities and integrate further with hospital information systems (HIS), electronic health records (EHR), and billing platforms.

Exclusive: Droom India raises funds at $360 Mn valuation IPO-bound used car marketplace Droom is raising Rs 25 crore (approximately $2.9 million) in a fresh funding round co-led by India Accelerator (IA), and Rameshchandra Shah. The board at Droom has passed a special resolution to issue 15,62,500 preference shares at an issue price of Rs 160 each to raise Rs 25 crore or $2.9 million, its regulatory filings sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC) shows. India Accelerator and Shah both will invest Rs 5 crore each, Shirish Patel, CEO of Prudent Corporate Advisory (wealth management company) will invest Rs 3 crore and the remaining amount will be invested by other individual investors. The firm will use these proceeds for general corporate purposes, the filings said. As per Entrackr’s estimates, the Gurugram-based firm will be valued at approximately Rs 3,097 crore or $360 million post-allotment. “We deliberately kept the valuation very low for the Indian subsidiary as a strategic move to give material upside to Indians who did not have opportunity to participate in the making of Droom in the past one decade,” said Sandeep Aggarwal, Founder and CEO of Droom, in response to queries about the company's valuation. “We plan to raise a bit more capital in the near term at much higher valuation both in Singapore and India…” Droom is an online marketplace for buying and selling used vehicles, including cars, motorcycles, and electric vehicles. It also offers rental services. According to startup data intelligence platform TheKredible, Droom has raised approximately $330 million from investors including 57 Stars, Seven Train Ventures, Lightbox, and Beenext. Droom reported Rs 85 crore in revenue for FY24, a 66% decline from Rs 253 crore in FY23. It managed to reduce its losses by 35% to Rs 40 crore in FY24. Droom is reportedly planning to file draft papers for a Rs 1,000 crore IPO in 2027, targeting a valuation between $1.2 billion and $1.5 billion.

DailyRounds posts Rs 568 Cr revenue and Rs 320 Cr PAT in FY24
Medial

Dailyround’s operation revenue grew to Rs 568 crore in the fiscal year ending March 2024 from Rs 515 crore in FY23, its consolidated financial statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies show. Kunal Manchanada 12 May 2025 10:56 IST Updated On 12 May 2025 11:12 IST --- After recording a 42% year-on-year growth in FY23, healthcare-focused edtech platform DailyRounds experienced a moderate slowdown in FY24, with operating revenue increasing by just 10.3%. However, the Microsoft Ventures-backed firm’s profit surpassed Rs 300 crore in the same period. Dailyround’s operation revenue grew to Rs 568 crore in the fiscal year ending March 2024 from Rs 515 crore in FY23, its consolidated financial statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies show. DailyRounds’ flagship product, Marrow, is an online learning platform where medical students and practitioners can subscribe to various plans, including video lectures, question banks, and test series. These plans, ranging from 3 to 36 months, accounted for 93% of the operating revenue, which rose to Rs 528 crore in FY24. The remaining operating income came from book sales to students under specific plans and from market research services. The company also earned Rs 89 crore in non-operating income from interest on deposits and investments, taking its total revenue to Rs 657 crore in FY24. DailyRounds spent Rs 68 crore on employee benefits, making it the company’s largest cost center, followed by legal and professional services, which accounted for Rs 64 crore in FY24. Web hosting, payment gateways, advertising, business promotion, and other overheads pushed the total expenditure to Rs 225 crore in FY24 from Rs 187 crore in FY23. The year-on-year growth in scale, combined with controlled expenditure, helped DailyRounds post a 14% increase in profits to Rs 320 crore in FY24, compared to Rs 281 crore in FY23. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at 34.39% and 67.73%, respectively, during the same fiscal year. At the unit level, it spent Rs 0.40 to earn a rupee of operating revenue. By the end of FY24, DailyRounds’ total current assets stood at Rs 778 crore, including cash and bank balances of Rs 712 crore. As we have said earlier, the biggest challenge in this domain is getting in, and accepted with institutions. Post that, incremental costs are low, helping push profitability, and margins higher. The business will continue to have the margins that allow DailyRounds to expand into more segments of the field, and evolve with the changing needs of the market. However, truly disruptive growth will probably not come from the Indian market but other markets, and it remains to be seen how DailyRounds plans for such growth. With a claimed presence in over 16 countries, the firm seems well aware of the opportunities ahead, and will continue to be watched for such a breakthrough sooner than later.

Redcliffe Labs crosses Rs 350 Cr revenue in FY24, narrows losses significantly
Medial

Online diagnostic platform Redcliffe, backed by Leapfrog Investments, reported modest growth during the fiscal year ending March 2024, achieving a 28% reduction in losses, largely attributed to a significant cut in advertising and material costs. Redcliffe’s revenue from operations grew by 11% to Rs 348.38 crore in FY24 from Rs 313.86 crore in FY23, as per its consolidated financial statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). Redcliffe Labs operates a network of laboratories specializing in pathological testing across various branches of biochemistry and radiology. Around 98% of its operating revenue came from these services, contributing Rs 341.02 crore in FY24. The sale of products and other operating income accounted for Rs 2.16 crore and Rs 5.20 crore, respectively, during the last fiscal year. The company’s total income crossed Rs 353 crore in FY24 with other non-operating income worth Rs 5.3 crore including interest income and excess provisions written back. The Noida-based company’s advertising costs fell by 45% to Rs 65.38 crore, and material costs, which declined by 15% to Rs 106.31 crore in FY24. However, there was a notable increase in laboratory test charges and depreciation costs which grew by 62.2% and 3X respectively. Overall, the company successfully controlled its total expenses, which dropped 14% to Rs 556.16 crore in FY24 from Rs 647.30 crore in FY23. In the end, the company managed to decrease its losses by 28% to Rs 250 crore in FY24 from Rs 345 crore in FY23. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at -544.68% and -57.55%, respectively. On a unit basis, Redcliffe Labs spent Rs 1.6 to earn a rupee in FY24. Redcliffe recorded cash and bank balances of Rs 15.87 crore and had current assets worth Rs 89.64 crore as of FY24. According to TheKredible, Redcliffe Labs has amassed total funding of $113 million to date, including investments from LeapFrog. The company recently secured $42 million in a Series C funding round and acquired Bengaluru-based Celara Diagnostics for approximately $7 million. Entrackr exclusively reported the development. Among venture-funded companies, Redcliffe competes with PharmEasy-owned Thyrocare, Healthians, and 1mg. Tata 1mg’s revenue from operations increased to Rs 1,968 crore in FY24 from Rs 1,627 crore in FY23 while Healthians achieved EBITDA profitability with Rs 243 crore revenue in FY24. Thyrocare, which is a public company, reported 20% jump in revenue to Rs 177.4 crore in Q2 FY25 with a profit after tax of Rs 26.4 crore. While founded in 2018, Redcliffe Labs saw real interest, and backing for its plans in the year after Covid struck, when diagnostic labs were considered as good as money printing machines by some investors. That has meant the usual spike in funding, followed by the struggle we are seeing in the past two years, as momentum has all but died out, and much like edtech, the legacy players including hospitals have fought back to reclaim their space. On a smaller base as compared to its peers, Redcliffe’s topline growth remains unimpressive, and the bottomline pressure will continue to hurt. While it has done its own share of acquisitions to buy its way out of stagnation, that has clearly not worked, to no one’s surprise. The whole category faces a challenge of growth today, even if the overall size is much much larger than pre-2020, and looks set to remain that way. The only issue is the scramble for share among many more players, including those who raised money at hefty post-covid valuations, making growth difficult. Despite many promises, no firm has stood out for a breakthrough offering like faster speed, lower costs or specialised accurate diagnosis, to stand out. Fy25 promises to be yet another year of attrition, and for Redcliffe, the best hope might yet remain a respectable acquisition by a larger player, than trying to cut its own pathway ahead.

Winzo ends FY23 with Rs 674 Cr revenue and Rs 126 Cr PAT
Medial

Online gaming startup Winzo registered 2.8X growth in its scale during the fiscal year ending March 2023. Significantly, the Delhi-based company also posted a hefty profit of Rs 126 crore in the same period. Winzo’s revenue from operations surged to Rs 674 crore in FY23 from Rs 234 crore in FY22, its consolidated financial statements filed with the Registrar of Companies show. Established in 2018, Winzo offers over 100 games across categories such as strategy, sports, casual, card, arcade, racing, action, and board games. The service fees levied on the total funds involved in real money games, and the sale of digital or in-app vouchers were the only revenue drivers for Winzo. The company also made Rs 16.78 crore from interest (non-operating), taking its total revenue to Rs 691 core in FY23. Similar to every online gaming platform, Winzo spent a major chunk (46% of its total expenditure) on marketing (advertising cum promotions). This cost surged 29.6% to Rs 258 crore in FY23. The firm’s burn on employee benefits, legal-professional, commission paid to agents, direct gaming costs, and other overheads catalyzed its overall expenditure to Rs 564 crore in FY23 from Rs 375 crore in FY22.

That said, a notable jump in scale helped Winzo report Rs 126 crore profit in FY23 as compared to a loss of Rs 130 crore in FY22. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin improved to 27% and 19% respectively. On a unit level, the company spent Rs 0.84 to earn a rupee in FY23. FY22-FY23 FY22 FY23 EBITDA Margin -53% 19% Expense/₹ of Op Revenue ₹1.60 ₹0.84 ROCE -39% 27% Winzo has raised around $100 million to date including a $65 million Series C round led by California-based Griffin Gaming Partners in July 2021. According to the startup data intelligence platform TheKredible, Makers Fund is the largest external stakeholder with 15.77% followed by Griffin Gaming Partners and Courtside Ventures. The significant jump in profits for Winzo underscores the best case scenario for most gaming platforms today. A high fixed cost business till it achieves critical mass in terms of users and fees, and post that, very low cost increases, as most of the incremental money goes to the bottomline. For Winzo, however, future investments will beckon soon, both in terms of new game development as well as the high marketing spends, which it will find tough to tamp down for now. But with a growing gamers user base across the country and with itself, next only to China, maintaining margins may not be as tough. You can be sure that if it does so in FY24, India will have its next high growth Unicorn from gaming to talk about.
