M1xchange, the Amazon-backed digital invoice discounting marketplace, staged a remarkable turnaround in FY25 by swinging to profitability after ending the previous year in losses. The company reported a net profit of Rs 12 crore in FY25, compared to a loss of Rs 4 crore in FY24. Founded in 2016, M1xchange TReDS is a digital marketplace to sell receivables to banks/NBFCs set up under the approval of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to facilitate the discounting of invoices and bills of exchange on a PAN India basis. The revival was powered by strong revenue growth. The company’s operating revenue for the year grew 80.5% to Rs 102 crore from Rs 56.5 crore in FY24, according to its consolidated financial statement sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). The bulk of the revenue came from transaction and commission charges, which surged to Rs 93 crore, accounting for more than 91% of the topline.

The company’s founder and CEO, Sundeep Mohindru, owns 31% of the company.

ZingHR crosses Rs 120 Cr revenue mark in FY24, cuts losses by 67% Cloud-based HRtech firm ZingHR sustained its growth streak in the last fiscal year, with revenue from operations surging over 47%, crossing the Rs 120 crore mark. Simultaneously, the Mumbai-based company reduced its losses by two-thirds during the same period. According to its consolidated financial statement sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC), ZingHR's revenue from operations climbed to Rs 124 crore in FY24 from Rs 84 crore in FY23. ZingHR offers staffing and talent acquisition services across various sectors, including BFSI, retail, and IT. The company generates its revenue exclusively from the sale of subscription-based software. Similar to other recruiting and allied service platforms, Zing HR’s employee benefits remained the largest cost component, accounting for 61% of total expenses. This cost rose 37% to Rs 81 crore during the fiscal year ending March 2024 from Rs 59 crore in FY23. Server and data security charges saw a 71% spike, reaching Rs 12 crore, while product maintenance costs increased 50% to Rs 9 crore. In contrast, professional fees and other expenses witnessed marginal reductions. Overall, total expenses for ZingHR grew 24% to Rs 133 crore in FY24. Despite rising costs, ZingHR significantly reduced its losses, reporting a net loss of Rs 7 crore in FY24, an improvement from Rs 21 crore in FY23, a 67% reduction. The company's Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) and EBITDA margin stood at -24.69% and -5.52%, respectively. On a unit level, ZingHR spent Rs 1.07 to earn a rupee during the last fiscal year. The Mumbai-based firm reported current assets worth Rs 56 crore, including Rs 12 crore in cash and bank balances in FY24. According to TheKredible, ZingHR has raised $14 million in funding to date, with Tata Capital as its lead investor, holding a 35.82% stake. ZingHR seems close to breaking out of any future fundraising requirements, assuming that momentum from FY24 has carried over into FY25 numbers as well. The disruption in the HRTech space is vastly underestimated, considering the continuous disruptions seen for the past decade, and ZingHR’s performance is quite good in that situation. While we don’t have a breakdown for revenue from India versus outside, the firm will do well to build revenues from exports. At a time when even forbidden sectors like the government or government-owned firms might be opening up to HR Tech firms, one would have to say even amidst the high competitive intensity, the sector is set to be significantly larger over the next 5 years. The one massive challenge will remain the missing firms from the MSME sector, which remains a problem to solve for service providers across the chain for now, not just HR. But all said and done, exciting times lie ahead for ZingHR.

After a tepid performance in the last fiscal year, subscription-based furniture rental firm Furlenco has made a notable comeback in FY25. The Bengaluru-based firm managed 65% year-on-year revenue growth and kept tight control on expenses.

Furlenco’s revenue from operations grew to Rs 229 crore in FY25 from Rs 139 crore in FY24, according to its consolidated financial statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). Furlenco provides furniture and home decor for rent along with relocation services. Income from furniture rental services accounted for 91% of the operating revenue, which grew by 61% to Rs 208 crore in FY25.

M League earns Rs 560 Cr from overseas in FY25, turns profitable According to its consolidated financial statements filed with Singapore’s ACRA, M League’s revenue from operations surged to Rs 1,423 crore ($166.7 million) in FY25 from Rs 1,092 crore ($127.9 million) in FY24. M League, the parent company of Mobile Premier League (MPL), has recorded one of its strongest financial performances in FY25, clocking over 30% year-on-year growth and turning profitable at the group level. The turnaround, however, comes at a time when the company has had to shut down its real-money gaming (RMG) operations in India. Gaming remained the primary revenue driver, contributing $165.8 million, while the rest came from advertising and other operating activities. India was the largest market, accounting for around 60% of total revenue, followed by Europe and the US. Its German subsidiary, GameDuell Studios, a wholly owned unit, contributed nearly $60 million revenue in FY25. Advertising formed the largest expense, making up 42% of the total and rising 32.8% to $70 million. The company managed to trim employee benefit expenses by 20.5% to Rs 364 crore, while other operating costs, including payment gateway, server hosting, and professional fees, pushed total expenditure to $166.2 million (Rs 1,419 crore) in FY25. M League reported a net profit of $4.2 million (Rs 36.5 crore) in FY25, a sharp turnaround from a loss of $44.8 million (Rs 383 crore) in FY24. Its EBITDA margin turned positive at 2.45% during the last fiscal year. While FY25 marked a milestone year, the company’s outlook in India remains uncertain after the government’s move to outlaw real-money gaming. A company spokesperson told Entrackr that the latest results highlight the benefits of M League’s diversified strategy. “We didn’t put all our eggs into the India RMG basket. We have bought ourselves time and can act from a place of near-EBITDA breakeven at a group level while continuing to invest in growth areas such as GameDuell, Xsquads, and other ventures,” the spokesperson added. GameDuell grew 64% during FY25, while M League had already made early inroads into the US and Brazil by March 2025. International expansion is part of the company’s long-term vision to host a digital Olympics with players from across nations. M League maintained that its global portfolio gives it the flexibility to balance investment and returns. GameDuell has been profitable for years despite its rapid growth, and at the group level, M League has the ability to generate EBITDA whenever it chooses. M League refrained from sharing near-term projections, stating that it is too early to forecast annualized revenue after shutting down its India operations.
