* Please note that the financial figures for the year ended March 31,2024, have been presented on a standalone basis, as consolidated financial statements were not applicable during that period. The consolidated financial results are being reported for the first time for the financial year ended March 31,2025, following the acquisition of the Ebix Inc. and its group entities.

2.    REVIEW OF OPERATIONS AND STATEMENT OF COMPANY'S AFFAIRS:

During the year under review, the Company demonstrated significant top-line growth, reporting a consolidated revenue from operations of ?14,805.21 million for the financial year ended March 31,2025. This robust performance reflects the Company's expanding operational footprint and enhanced market presence, driven in large part by the strategic acquisition of the Ebix Inc. and its group entities during the year. As a result of this acquisition, the Company has prepared and presented consolidated financial statements for the first time in FY 2024-25. Consequently, comparative consolidated figures for the previous year are not being provided, and any comparison with the prior period is limited to standalone performance.

Despite the significant increase in revenue, the Company incurred a consolidated net loss of ?3,235.15 million, primarily attributable to increased operational and integration-related expenses, as well as other one-time exceptional costs associated with the acquisition and expansion strategy.

On a standalone basis, the Company recorded a revenue from operations of ?213.85 million for the financial year ended March 31,2025, marking a significant increase from ?12.65 million in the previous year. This strong year-on-year growth underscores the Company's positive business momentum and expanding footprint in markets.

Despite the encouraging increase in revenue, the Company reported a net loss of ?258.65 million, as compared to a net profit of ?3.39 million in the preceding year. The decline in profitability was primarily driven by higher input costs, expansion-related expenses, and other strategic investments undertaken to strengthen the Company's long-term positioning and operational capabilities.

Looking ahead, the management remains committed to executing targeted initiatives focused on enhancing operational efficiency, cost optimization, and sustainable profitability in the upcoming financial year.

During the financial year, Eraaya Lifespaces Limited, leading a consortium of strategic investors, successfully acquired Ebix Inc., a U.S.-based multinational provider of on-demand software and e-commerce services to the insurance, financial, healthcare, and e-learning industries along with its global subsidiaries. The acquisition was concluded through a court-supervised auction process under Chapter 11 proceedings in the United States, with the Eraaya-led consortium emerging as the successful bidder. The transaction was concluded on August 30, 2024, for a mutually agreed purchase consideration.

Post-acquisition, Ebix Inc. emerged from bankruptcy as a debt-free entity and continues to operate as a U.S.-domiciled company under applicable U.S. laws, maintaining its business presence in over 75 countries. This strategic acquisition, led by Eraaya, is aligned with the Company's long-term objective of diversifying into global, technology-enabled platforms and significantly enhances its footprint in high-growth verticals including digital payments, Insurtech, and SaaS-based enterprise solutions.

Vikas Lifecare Limited Contribution towards the acquisition of Ebix Group

As you may be aware from the Company's periodic public disclosures, in connection with the acquisition of Ebix Inc., Eraaya Lifespaces Limited, as the consortium leader, entered into an agreement with Vikas Lifecare Limited ("VLL'), a listed entity, under which VLL contributed USD 34.827 million towards the bid. The inter-se repayment terms were subsequently amended through an Addendum to the Agreement between your Company and VLL.

Although the acquisition was successfully completed on August 30, 2024, repayment to VLL was delayed solely due to the non-release of USD 40 million from the Company's FCCB issue proceeds by intermediaries-against whom necessary actions have already been initiated separately. Arbitration was thereafter invoked and concluded with an award, which the Company duly complied with by transferring equity shares in one of the Ebix Inc. subsidiaries to settle the matter with VLL; though reserving all its legal rights, your Company remains committed to protecting shareholder value, which remains intact and is expected to grow steadily in line with its long-term strategic vision behind the Ebix Inc. acquisition, further supported by various other business initiatives and expansion strategies currently underway across domestic and international markets to strengthen overall enterprise values.
