Vedantu, a Bengaluru-based edtech startup, is preparing for an initial public offering (IPO) within the next one to two years, aiming to raise approximately $150-200 million between late 2026 and 2027. This move seeks to provide early investors with an exit opportunity and to secure capital for further growth.
The company has reported a 21% year-on-year increase in consolidated operating revenue, reaching ₹184 crore in FY24, while reducing losses by about 58% to ₹157 crore during the same period. Vedantu anticipates a 30% revenue growth in FY25 and projects a 25-35% growth over the next three to five years.
Co-founder and CEO Vamsi Krishna emphasized that achieving profitability is a priority, with expectations to see the first cash-flow positive quarter between January and March. He noted that profitability aligns with the company's IPO plans, stating, "The moment we become profitable, an IPO becomes relevant for us."
Vedantu's strategic focus includes expanding its offline presence to drive growth, reflecting a broader trend among edtech platforms to integrate online and offline educational services.
