Despite strong revenue growth, Boba Bhai’s losses widened 2.2X to Rs 21.8 crore in FY26 from Rs 9.96 crore in FY25. The company’s spending per rupee of operating revenue improved marginally to Rs 1.33 from Rs 1.37. EBITDA margin improved to -30.35% from -34.67%, while ROCE deteriorated to -41.12% from -32.47%.

Next test: store-level profitability and cash generation

Boba Bhai raised Rs 40 crore in March 2026 as it continued expanding its store network. The company currently operates around 100 stores across eight cities and plans to expand to 10 cities in FY27, while adding another 150-200 stores by the end of the fiscal. Cash and bank balances declined to Rs 2.85 crore from Rs 24.07 crore, making improved unit economics and cash generation key priorities as the company scales.
