Urban Company Reports 37% Revenue Rise, Still Posts Loss
Urban Company, an Indian home–services platform, recorded a 37 percent year-on-year increase in operating revenue during the September 2025 quarter, reaching approximately ₹380 crore. This growth was driven by strong performance across its India consumer-services, international operations and its “Native” branded home-products segment.
Widening Losses Amid Expansion
Despite the revenue boost, the company’s consolidated net loss widened significantly to around ₹59 crore for the quarter, compared with a small loss a year earlier. The expansion of a new instant-help vertical, increased partner-training costs and investments in infrastructural scaling were cited as the principal causes of the widened loss.
Strategic Outlook and Concerns
While the growth in top-line is encouraging, analysts note that a consistent path to profitability remains uncertain given elevated expenses and growing competition in the gig-economy home-services sector. Urban Company emphasises that its current strategy is to prioritise market-share capture and new-category development over immediate margin gains. Stakeholders will now focus on how fast the company can stabilise its cost-structure and convert growth into sustainable profits.
