Urban Company Q2 Revenue Rises 41%, Loss Widens; Board Approves Rs 2,500 Crore Fundraise
Urban Company reported a 41% year-on-year revenue increase to Rs 537 crore in Q2 FY27, driven by growth across India, international, and smart home segments. Despite this, net loss widened to Rs 182.5 crore due to heavy investments in its quick services vertical, InstaHelp. The board approved a capital raise of up to Rs 2,500 crore, subject to shareholder approval, aiming to strengthen financial flexibility, support InstaHelp, and pursue selective acquisitions amid rising competition from rivals like Snabbit and Pronto.
