Meesho's Q2 Loss Narrows 68% to ₹132 Crore as Revenue Grows 34% to ₹4,132 Crore
The e-commerce marketplace's September-quarter loss fell from ₹411 crore a year earlier, and its contribution margin rose to 6% of order value as revenue crossed ₹4,100 crore.
Why it mattersMeesho now makes more on each order before fixed costs, a sign its low-price marketplace model is moving toward profit, which matters to the sellers and brands that advertise on it.

Meesho's net loss narrowed 68% to ₹132.4 crore in the September 2026 quarter from ₹411.4 crore a year earlier, as revenue from operations rose 34% to ₹4,131.6 crore, according to results reported by Inc42 on 28 October 2026.
The loss was flat from ₹132.8 crore in the June quarter, while revenue grew 11% quarter on quarter. Part of the year-on-year improvement comes from one-offs: the year-ago quarter carried ₹45 crore of exceptional expenses and a ₹64.4 crore tax charge that did not recur. Before exceptional items and tax, the loss fell 57% to ₹123.3 crore.
