Home renovation platform Livspace has become “cash- flow positive” in India business on the back of robust growth in its revenue, a top company official said.
Livspace is expecting around 30 per cent growth in its revenue during the 2023-24 financial year from around Rs 1,100 crore in the preceding fiscal.
India business contributes 80-85 per cent to the company’s total turnover.
The company’s EBITDA losses narrowed to 95.35 million Singapore dollar from 96.86 million Singapore dollar during the period under review.
“Our revenue has grown 50 per cent CAGR (compounded annual growth rate) in the past two fiscal years. We have become cash flow positive from October-December quarter of 2023-24 in India business, which is 80-85 per cent of our total revenue,” Livspaceco Founder Ramakant Sharma told PTI.
Asked about the revenue during the last fiscal year, Livspace Chief Strategy Officer Ankit Shah said the numbers have not been finalised yet but the revenue could be around 30 per cent higher in 2023-24.
He asserted that the company is not burning cash anymore and is generating enough cash flow to expand business organically.
“We have around USD 100 million cash in our balance sheet,” he said, adding that the fund will be utilised for expansion.
“Business expansion, investment in branding and experience centres, and improving the supply chain have helped the company achieve high growth in the last two fiscal years,” he said.
Livspace is actively pursuing M&A opportunities to accelerate growth and enhance its market position.
