Financial Performance
Revenue Growth by Segment
Total income for FY 2024-25 was INR 39.91 Cr, representing a 7.7% increase over the previous year. However, H1 FY26 saw a revenue decline to INR 15.6 Cr compared to approximately INR 18 Cr in H1 FY25 (a 13.3% decrease) due to deferred enrollments and elongated conversion cycles. Immigration consulting remains the major revenue driver, though specific % splits per segment are not disclosed.
Geographic Revenue Split
Not disclosed in available documents, though the company is expanding internationally with a planned campus in Dubai and aggressive branding at international fairs like APAIE and ICEF.
Profitability Margins
Profit after tax for H1 FY26 was INR 2.1 Cr. Profitability was lower YoY due to operating leverage impacts where fixed costs were absorbed over a lower revenue base. The company targets a profit of INR 50 Cr by FY 2027-28, implying a significant margin expansion from current levels.
EBITDA Margin
EBITDA for H1 FY26 stood at INR 74 lakhs. Margins compressed significantly due to the expansion of 5 new branches, which increased advertisement, rental, and operational expenses, alongside the sponsorship of international education fairs.
Capital Expenditure
The company utilized IPO proceeds to fund expansion; as of March 31, 2025, unutilized IPO proceeds of INR 9.59 Cr were held in fixed deposits. Planned expenditure includes the establishment of a new campus in Dubai.
Credit Rating & Borrowing
The company has not been sanctioned working capital limits in excess of INR 5 Cr. Borrowing costs and specific credit ratings are not disclosed, but the current ratio improved to 4.19 from 2.06, indicating high liquidity.

Competitive Landscape

Competitive Moat
Moat is built on brand strength, institutional relationships, and a robust internal control framework. Sustainability depends on the ability to adapt to technological disruptions like AI and blockchain in visa processing.
Macro Economic Sensitivity
Highly sensitive to global macro uncertainty and changes in international travel trends, which can suppress service demand.
Consumer Behavior
Students are currently adopting a cautious, 'deferment-oriented' approach due to higher financial thresholds and policy uncertainties.
Geopolitical Risks
Unpredictable diplomatic shifts and cross-border tensions can disrupt operations and reduce demand for immigration services in specific regions.
Regulatory & Governance
Industry Regulations
Operations are heavily governed by Regulation 33 of SEBI Listing Regulations and immigration policies of various destination countries. Changes in visa scrutiny and financial thresholds for immigrants directly impact the business model.

Not applicable for this service-based business.

Risk Analysis
Key Uncertainties
Technological disruption from AI/automation in visa processing and unpredictable changes in global immigration policies are the primary risks, potentially impacting revenue by 10-15% during policy shifts.
Geographic Concentration Risk
While headquartered in India (Chandigarh), the company is diversifying but currently faces concentration risk in the Indian student source market.
Third Party Dependencies
High dependency on the policies of foreign embassies and the admission cycles of international universities.
Technology Obsolescence Risk
The company identifies AI and blockchain as potential disruptors to traditional visa processing models that require timely adaptation.
Credit & Counterparty Risk
Receivables quality is generally high as services are often fee-based; the current ratio of 4.19 indicates strong short-term liquidity.
