Last fiscal, the firm reported a net loss of Rs 264 crore on operating revenue of Rs 819 crore.\u201cWe will strengthen our leadership position by going deeper into our existing markets and by helping brands reach kiranas with the lowest total cost of activation and the fastest route to market in the sector,\u201d Jhina said.<\/p>\n

The firm runs an online B2B marketplace for kirana stores<\/a> as well as a fintech platform to provide payment, credit solutions and financial services. It competes with the likes of Bengaluru-based companies Udaan and Ninjacart.<\/p>\n

In January, ET had reported that Udaan\u2019s valuation had nearly halved to about $1.8 billion<\/a> in a down round. The firm has been scaling down operations over the last 12-18 months to reduce burn, and reported a 43% fall in gross revenue to Rs 5,629 crore for FY23, while loss narrowed to Rs 2,075 crore from Rs 3,123 crore in FY22.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, Ninjacart expanded its business over the past year to provide a marketplace<\/a> for farmers and traders and help them avail of financial services, cofounder and chief executive Kartheeswaran KK had told ET in October last year. The firm is now aiming for revenue of more than Rs 2,500 crore in FY24, compared with Rs 1,212 crore in FY23, he had said at the time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
