Terms in this story
- Profitability: A path to profitability is the plan and evidence that a startup will earn more than it spends. In India the usual order is contribution positive, then EBITDA positive, then net profit and positive cash flow. Each step is a different test, so claims of profit need the definition.
- Financial year: An Indian financial year runs from 1 April to 31 March, and it is named after the year it ends. FY26 means April 2025 to March 2026. Startup results for a year arrive months after it closes, so a November 2026 story may still be about FY25.
- Profitability: Profitable can mean five different things in a startup headline: profit after tax, positive EBITDA, positive adjusted EBITDA, positive cash flow or profit on each order. Only the first is a profit in the full accounting sense. Always check which one a story means.
