About

About Bira 91

B9 Beverages Private Limited, founded in 2015 by Ankur Jain, operates the Bira 91 brand — India's most popular craft beer. The company disrupted the Indian beer market dominated by Kingfisher and Budweiser by targeting millennial consumers with flavourful wheat beers and bold branding. Bira 91 now offers 50+ products including lagers, wheat beers, IPAs, stouts, hard seltzers, and non-alcoholic variants. It operates 6 breweries across India and exports to 15+ countries. The company has raised over 00 million from Sofina, Sequoia, Sixth Sense, and Japanese brewer Kirin Holdings. In FY24 Bira 91 crossed ₹1,000 Cr in revenue.
IPO outlook

When is the Bira 91 IPO?

Anticipated
FY27
B9 Beverages has explored an IPO as it reaches revenue scale and moves toward profitability. The Indian premium alcohol market is growing at 15%+ CAGR. Comparable global craft beer companies trade at premium revenue multiples. Regulatory complexities around alcohol sector listings in India may delay timelines.

Strengths

  • Bira 91 is an established consumer brand. The group still generated revenue from operations of INR 6,385.31 million in FY24, after INR 8,243.23 million in FY23.
  • Backers include Peak XV Partners Investments V and Kirin Holdings Singapore Pte. Ltd., which the annual report names as enterprises with significant influence over the company.
  • The company has raised capital to fund the business. Non-current borrowings raised during FY24 were used for the purposes they were taken for, according to the annual report.
  • It sells beyond India, as the annual report says the company exports its products to various countries.
  • The founder is closely involved. Mr. Ankur Jain, the Managing Director, has also given a personal guarantee for company borrowings.

Risks

  • Sales fell. Consolidated revenue from operations dropped from INR 8,243.23 million in FY23 to INR 6,385.31 million in FY24.
  • Losses are growing. The group lost INR 7,488.00 million in FY24, against INR 4,454.83 million in FY23, and basic loss per share was INR 125.99.
  • Consolidated total equity turned negative at INR 4,821.17 million at 31 March 2024, from positive INR 1,618.59 million a year earlier.
  • Debt is high at INR 5,858.22 million, and the company reported delays in interest repayment to some lenders on its standalone books.
  • The standalone going concern note says the net worth is fully eroded and that there is a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about continuing as a going concern.
  • Operating cash flow on the standalone books was negative INR 422.63 million in FY24, so the business is not funding itself.
  • The company has tax and VAT claims against it that are listed as contingent liabilities, including income tax claims for several assessment years.
  • Receivables are a pressure point. Standalone credit-impaired trade receivables were INR 374.04 million at 31 March 2024, against INR 164.60 million a year earlier.
  • The company is not listed. Unlisted share prices are indicative, trading is thin and there is no assurance an IPO will happen.
