Digital health and wellness consultation startup Mosaic Wellness grew at a rapid clip during the last two fiscal years, raising its scale over 18X from Rs 11.47 crore in FY21 to surpass the Rs 200 crore revenue mark in FY23. At the same time, the firm posted Rs 62 crore in losses in FY23. Mosaic Wellness’s revenue from operations surged 163% to Rs 207 crore in FY23 from Rs 78 crore in FY22, its annual financial statements filed with the Registrar of Companies show. Founded in 2020 by Revant Bhate and Dhyanesh Shah, Mosaic Wellness is a digital-first consumer health platform that runs three separate brands for men, women, and kids. Its flagship brand ManMatters offers solutions across derma, sexual health, hygiene, and nutrition. Income from the sale of health and wellness products is the primary source of revenue for Mosaic Wellness. The company also made Rs 8 crore from interest, tallying its total revenue to Rs 215 crore in FY23. Mosaic Wellness spent a whopping Rs 100 crore on advertising and promotions which is 36% of its overall expenditure. Its cost of procurement of health and wellness products surged 2.6X to Rs 60 crore in FY23.

Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at -38% and -21% respectively. On a unit level, it spent Rs 1.34 to earn a rupee in FY23. Mosaic Wellness has raised over $34 million across rounds including its $24 million Series A led by Peak XV along with the participation of Elevation Capital and Matrix Partners in November 2021. According to the startup data intelligence platform TheKredible, the company was valued at $240 million in its last fundraise. Elevation emerged as the latest external shareholder with a 24.1% stake followed by PeakXV and Matrix Partners with 17.9% and 16.3%, respectively. FY22-FY23 FY22 FY23 EBITDA Margin -46% -21% Expense/₹ of Op Revenue ₹1.61 ₹1.34 ROCE -23% -38% The emergence of startups like Mosaic Wellness can usually be considered a net positive as they take away share from shady operators offering unqualified advice for health related issues. However, with their own dependence on pushing wellness products, many with potentially dubious claims when it comes to benefits, the firm does run the risk of slipping up on credibility at some stage. The high dependence on advertising and promotions is a clear indicator of the efforts required to wean away clientele from smaller mostly unlicensed players. By now, the firm should be in a position to assume leadership, or clear focus on a specific area where it can, and has made a discernible difference to its customers, and build on that for the future.
