Financial stats pending filing verification
CL Educate reported 9-month consolidated revenue of ₹445 crore, up 67% YoY, driven by the DEX acquisition. EBITDA grew 120% to ₹59 crore, but PAT was negative ₹16 crore due to ₹28 crore in IND-AS adjustments and ₹5.5 crore from new labor codes. Excluding these, PAT would have been ~₹17 crore. The edtech business faced structural headwinds, with revenue declining from ₹150 crore to ₹127 crore, while martech grew steadily. DEX revenue rose 12% to ₹194 crore with 300bps margin improvement. Management launched MySATI, an on-demand, computer-adaptive test platform, with 18 universities onboarded. A ₹50 crore fundraise is planned to ease short-term cash stress. Risk: edtech structural shift may persist for 2-4 quarters, pressuring recovery.
CL Educate ने पिछले 9 महीनों में ₹445 करोड़ की कमाई की, जो पिछले साल से 67% ज़्यादा है। यह बढ़ोतरी DEX कंपनी खरीदने से हुई। मुनाफा (EBITDA) ₹59 करोड़ रहा, जो 120% बढ़ा, लेकिन कुल मुनाफा (PAT) ₹16 करोड़ का घाटा है। इसकी वजह ₹28 करोड़ के नए हिसाब-किताब के नियम (IND-AS) और ₹5.5 करोड़ के नए श्रम कानून हैं। इन्हें हटा दें तो मुनाफा ₹17 करोड़ होता। एडटेक कारोबार मुश्किल में है, इसकी कमाई ₹150 करोड़ से घटकर ₹127 करोड़ रह गई। वहीं, मार्टेक कारोबार बढ़ रहा है। DEX की कमाई 12% बढ़कर ₹194 करोड़ हुई। कंपनी ने MySATI नाम से नया टेस्ट प्लेटफॉर्म लॉन्च किया, जिसमें 18 यूनिवर्सिटी जुड़ गईं। ₹50 करोड़ जुटाने की योजना है ताकि नकदी की कमी दूर हो। एडटेक में मुश्किलें 2-4 तिमाही तक रह सकती हैं।
