Knya FY26: Revenue Crosses ₹100 Cr Mark, PAT Jumps 3X YoY

Omnichannel medical apparel brand Knya reported a significant surge in its financial performance during the fiscal year 2025-26 (FY26), with revenue surpassing ₹100 crore and profit after tax (PAT) tripling to ₹10 crore. The company's operating revenue expanded by an impressive 83% to ₹110 crore, up from ₹60 crore in FY25. Despite this growth in revenue, total expenses also increased by 75%, reaching ₹100 crore in FY26 compared to ₹57 crore in the previous fiscal year.

Knya, founded in 2020 by husband-wife duo Abhijeet and Vanshika Kaji, specializes in medical apparel for healthcare professionals, including scrubs, lab coats, workwear, and stethoscopes. Initially operating as a direct-to-consumer (D2C) brand, Knya transitioned to an omnichannel format in 2024. The company currently maintains over 30 physical stores in cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Patna, Thrissur, and Puducherry, catering to more than 15 lakh medical professionals and supplying to more than 1,000 hospitals across India, including renowned institutions like Max Healthcare, Apollo Hospitals, and Indira IVF.

A significant portion of Knya's revenue, approximately 85%, comes from its own website and app, while company-owned stores contribute an additional 5-7%. The remaining revenue is generated through marketplaces such as Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra, Blinkit, and Swiggy. Looking ahead, Knya aims to end FY27 with 55-60 stores and expand to over 100 stores by FY28.

The company's financial outlook for FY27 anticipates a revenue of ₹205 crore, an EBITDA margin of 20%, and a PAT of ₹15 crore. Knya is currently operating at an annualized revenue run rate (ARR) of more than ₹250 crore.

Despite its ambitious expansion plans, Knya does not plan to seek additional capital in the near term, as its stores are already generating sufficient revenue to sustain growth. The startup has already raised around ₹16 crore in equity funding from investors including ESG Consumer Partners, Samina Hamied, and Dr. Devi Shetty. With its capital, Knya has expanded its presence to the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt, and now plans to intensify its footprint across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region before exploring European markets later in the financial year.

Beyond its commercial operations, Knya has launched Breakpoint, a free 24×7 mental health helpline for medical professionals in collaboration with Aditya Birla. This initiative aims to provide support to doctors and nurses dealing with stress and burnout. Looking to the future, Knya aims to grow into a ₹1,000 crore revenue business, expand its retail network to approximately 250 stores, and aim for a public listing within three to five years.
