Redcliffe Labs doesn't publish these figures. Other sources have reported them, so they're here to give you a rough idea only. They may be out of date or wrong, and the real numbers can differ a lot — get them from the brand in writing before you decide.

FY24 revenue from operations (consolidated statements, per Entrackr)Reported by Entrackr, 10 Dec 2024, 2024-12-10 · Entrackr says the figures come from consolidated financial statements sourced from the registrar; total expenses Rs 556.16 crore; loss about Rs 250 crore (down from about Rs 345 crore in FY23). Press figure, not read from a filing; scope is the group, not Redcliffe Lifetech alone. Entrackr's own expense (Rs 556.16 crore) and income (about Rs 353 crore) figures differ by about Rs 203 crore, less than its stated Rs 250 crore loss, and its FY24 EBITDA margin (-57.55%) differs from the company's -38%; treat the loss as an approximate press figure.: Rs 348.38 crore*
FY25 operating revenue and EBITDA margin (company press release, as reported)Reported by CXO Digitalpulse, 8 Jul 2025 (reports a company press release), 2025-07-08 · Company-issued figures relayed by trade press; not read from a filing and no net-loss figure given. Scope not stated.: Rs 419 crore revenue; EBITDA margin -21% (FY24: -38%)*
FY26 revenue and EBITDA margin (company statement, as reported)Reported by Inc42, 20 Jul 2026 (relays company statement), 2026-07-20 · Company-stated, relayed by trade press; not read from a filing; scope not stated; no net profit or loss figure given. The FY25 margin was -21% in the Jul 2025 release but -24% here, so margin definitions differ between releases.: Rs 470 crore revenue; EBITDA margin -13% (FY25 restated: -24%, earlier release said -21%)*

About the Brand

Brand USP

Diagnostics brand offering partner-run collection centres backed by its own labs, per its franchising page.

HeadquartersNoida, Uttar Pradesh

Redcliffe Labs is a Noida-based diagnostics company run by Redcliffe Lifetech Pvt. Ltd. Its franchising page claims 80+ labs, 2,000+ collection centres and 220+ cities, and an offer to people who want to open a pathology collection centre under the brand. It says applicants should preferably be healthcare professionals, phlebotomists, lab technicians or people with a pharmaceutical background. The page asks for about 150-200 sq ft on the ground floor (owned or rented) with an attached washroom, a centrifuge, refrigerator, power backup, AC, phlebotomy chair, BP and weight machines, a computer, printer, internet and barcode scanner, plus a biomedical-waste certificate and a Shop & Establishment licence. Partner benefits are listed as sales support, co-invested marketing, consumables, CRM and sample logistics. What to watch: the page gives no investment, fee, royalty, margin, contract term or payback figure, so the cost cannot be compared. Entrackr (Dec 2024), citing consolidated statements from the registrar, put the group's FY24 loss near Rs 250 crore on Rs 348.38 crore of operating revenue; a company press release reported by CXO Digitalpulse (Jul 2025) gave FY25 operating revenue of Rs 419 crore with the EBITDA loss margin narrowed from 38% to 21%. In July 2026 Inc42 relayed the company's statement of FY26 revenue of Rs 470 crore and an EBITDA loss margin of 13% (it now gives 24% for FY25), so the business was still loss-making at EBITDA level; no net-profit figure has been read from a filing. Ask for the written partner agreement, pricing and revenue-share slabs, exclusivity and exit terms first.
