Indian Startup FY24 Financials Tracker: Tracking The Financial Performance Of Top Startups

The world’s third largest startup ecosystem has been in the midst of a raging funding winter for a couple of years now. As investors tightened their purse strings, the Indian startup ecosystem has had to go through a lot of pain, which included thousands of employees losing their jobs. 

This was especially true for the fiscal year 2023-24 (FY24), when the funding drought peaked. Far from the capital boom of 2021, when fear of missing out (FOMO) among investors drove a valuation bubble, FY23 and FY24 turned out to be a reality check for the startup ecosystem as many shut shop while others took the debt route to extend their runways. 

However, not everything was doom and gloom. The struggle of the funding winter brought with it sanity in valuations and forced startups to cut their expenses to chart a profitable growth. This trend was evident in the financial statements of Indian startups in FY23 and seems to have continued in FY24 as well.

Of the 68 startups that have released their financial statements for FY24 so far, 35 ended the year with profitable numbers. Their cumulative profit stood at INR 4,647.8 Cr. 

The likes of Zomato, PB Fintech, Honasa, and Milk Mantra turned profitable during the year under review.

Meanwhile, the remaining 28 startups posted a cumulative loss of INR 15,211 Cr, with just Paytm and Ola Electric accounting for more than INR 3,000 Cr of this loss figure. However, it needs to be highlighted that many of these startups were also able to cut their losses in FY24.

In terms of top line, the 63 startups posted a cumulative operating revenue of INR 1.93 Lakh Cr (INR 1,93,682 Cr to be precise) in the year ended March 2024. 

So, without further ado, let’s take a look at the financial performance of some of these startups in FY24.

Editor’s Note: This list is not a ranking of any kind, we have placed the companies alphabetically. This is a running list and will be updated periodically.
