Unlisted Review and Rating
Considerable
DRHP Not FiledOverall Recommendation
InfoBay has delivered exceptional revenue and profit growth, high margins, strong cash generation, zero debt and substantial global AI exposure. Nevertheless, the investment requires customer-level due diligence because concentration is undisclosed, nearly all revenue is export-derived, the AI pivot has only a short operating history, no independent directors are identified, the FY26 attachment lacks the complete audit report, and unlisted quotations vary considerably. A purchase above approximately INR 4.1 lakh would offer a meaningfully smaller margin of safety.

Revenue growth with EBITDA and PAT margins
| Financial Metric | FY 2024 | FY 2025 | FY 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue (₹ Cr) | 11.4 | 48.4 | 107.8 |
| Growth (%) | 0.0% | 324.1% | 122.7% |
| EBITDA (₹ Cr) | 2.6 | 26.5 | 68.7 |

| PAT (₹ Cr) | -0.2 | 16.3 | 48.6 |
| PAT Margin (%) | -1.7% | 33.6% | 45.1% |
OBSERVATIONS & INSIGHTS
Revenue expanded 324.1% in FY25 and 122.7% in FY26, producing a 207.3% two-year CAGR despite moderation from the FY25 growth rate
The EBITDA proxy increased from ₹2.6 Cr to ₹68.7 Cr and margin expanded by 41.2 percentage points as revenue outpaced the growth in operating costs
The FY24 loss of ₹0.2 Cr turned into PAT of ₹16.3 Cr in FY25 and ₹48.6 Cr in FY26. A PAT CAGR is not meaningful because the starting period was loss-making
Basic EPS rose sharply, but the small and changing weighted-average equity base means EPS should be reconciled to all outstanding equity, preference securities, options and conversion terms before valuation

OBSERVATIONS & INSIGHTS
Shareholders’ wealth increased from ₹3.9 Cr in FY24 to ₹88.1 Cr in FY26, driven predominantly by retained earnings and reserve movements
Non-current borrowings declined from ₹17.1 Cr to nil over two years, materially reducing financial risk
Other current assets increased to ₹59.3 Cr and other non-current assets reached ₹23.8 Cr, together representing 77.7% of FY26 total assets
Trade receivables increased to ₹12.2 Cr but represented 11.4% of FY26 revenue from operations
Fixed assets were ₹6.9 Cr in FY26, consistent with a service-led model, although capitalised intangible assets and their useful lives require review
Other current liabilities reached ₹18.1 Cr, mainly reflecting short-term provisions. Their nature, timing and cash-settlement requirements should be examined

Industry Overview
Industry Drivers
Foundation-Model Scale and Post-Training
Larger models require extensive instruction data, preference data, red-team cases and benchmark evaluation
This expands demand for structured expert feedback, but buyers increasingly require measurable quality and may consolidate spending among trusted vendors
Domain-Specific and Multimodal Data
Healthcare, finance, legal, science, code, voice, image and video applications need specialised datasets and reviewers
Domain depth can improve pricing and defensibility, provided the Company can establish credentials, confidentiality and intellectual-property rights
Multilingual and Sovereign AI Demand
Governments and enterprises are investing in local-language and culturally representative models
India’s linguistic diversity and technical talent create an export opportunity for multilingual curation, although global sales increase data-transfer, tax and geopolitical complexity
Responsible AI, Provenance and Compliance
Customers need evidence that training data is authorised, traceable, secure and free from harmful bias or leakage
Strong consent, audit trails, privacy controls and evaluation standards can become differentiators rather than only compliance costs
Government Policy Support
The IndiaAI Mission has an approved outlay of ₹10,371.9 Cr over five years to support compute infrastructure, innovation, datasets, applications, skills, startup financing and safe or trusted AI. These programmes can expand domestic demand and the ecosystem for data preparation and evaluation, but they do not guarantee contracts for Infobay
IndiaAI Compute Capacity is intended to make more than 18,000.0 graphics-processing units available through an accessible national platform. Lower compute barriers can increase model-development activity and indirectly create demand for curated datasets, benchmarking and post-training services
AIKosh provides a national platform for datasets, models and use cases, while the Digital Personal Data Protection framework increases expectations around lawful processing, notice, consent, security and accountability. Infobay’s opportunity therefore depends on combining commercial delivery with verifiable data rights and privacy governance
