Shiprocket Narrows FY25 Loss by 88% to ₹74.5 Crore Ahead of IPO

IPO-bound Shiprocket, a key player in India’s e-commerce logistics and enablement segment, revealed its financials for the year ended March 2025. 

The company achieved robust revenue growth and improved cost control, enabling it to reduce its annual loss by nearly 88%.

Financial Performance And Business Breakdown

Shiprocket’s revenue rose from ₹1,316 crore in FY24 to ₹1,632 crore in FY25, reflecting a 24% increase. From this, the core logistics and tech business contributed around ₹1,306 crore, while emerging segments, including cross-border logistics, payments and omnichannel services, generated ₹326 crore. 

Total expenditure for the year stood at ₹1,749 crore, only marginally up from ₹1,709 crore in FY24. Employee benefit expenses fell by 26.8% to ₹314.9 crore, supporting margin improvement. 

Shiprocket turned cash EBITDA positive at ₹7 crore in FY25, compared with a cash EBITDA loss of ₹128 crore in the previous year. 

IPO-Readiness And Strategic Implications

Shiprocket filed a draft red-herring prospectus (DRHP) with SEBI in May 2025, aiming to raise around ₹2,000-2,500 crore in its upcoming public offering, of which ₹1,000-1,200 crore would be a fresh issue. 

The improved financials strengthen the company’s positioning ahead of the IPO, signalling to investors its ability to generate growth and reduce losses. However, profitability remains nascent, and the company continues to face competition and execution risks in a crowded logistics-tech ecosystem.

Conclusion

Shiprocket’s FY25 performance marks a key inflection point: revenue growth, narrower losses and cash-positive operations provide a stronger foundation for its upcoming listing. How the company converts this momentum into sustained profitability will be closely watched by market participants.
