Terms in this story
- EBITDA: EBITDA is earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation, a measure of operating profit before financing and accounting charges. It is not the same as net profit. In Indian startup results, check whether EBITDA includes ESOP costs, since adjusted versions often leave them out.
- 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.
