Business Overview
Confirmed- Chai Sutta Bar is a chai/tea-café franchise chain founded in 2016 in Indore by Anubhav Dubey and Anand Nayak, serving kulhad (clay-cup) tea and regional-flavour beverages via a low-cost, high-ROI franchise model
- Per the brand's own site (chaisuttabarindia.com): "650+ outlets worldwide, including Nepal, UAE and Canada" across "390+ cities," "20Cr+ Kulhad" cups served
- TheCompanyCheck classifies the entity's registered business activities as Wholesale Trading and "Other support services to organizations." Recognised as a DPIIT Startup
- Note: the operating brand is large (650+ outlets) but a sizeable share of outlets likely operate under separate franchisee entities/proprietorships and sister companies (see Related Parties) rather than solely under this CIN — this filing entity's own disclosed financial scale (~₹8 Cr revenue, 72 employees) is much smaller than brand-wide scale

Financials
Partial / conflicting- FY2024 (year ended 31-Mar-2024), standalone, per TheCompanyCheck: Revenue ₹8.18 Cr (down ~13% YoY)
- Per Tofler (percentage changes only, absolute figures paywalled): Total revenue -13.15% YoY, EBITDA -109.79% YoY (implies swing to negative/near-zero EBITDA), Net profit -33.62% YoY, Net worth +31.09% YoY, Total borrowings -41.14% YoY, Total assets -19.36% YoY — all for FY ended Mar-2024 vs FY ended Mar-2023
- Employees: 72
- Both sources agree directionally on the ~13% revenue decline; absolute EBITDA/PAT/net-worth/borrowings rupee figures are paywalled on both sites and hence not obtained precisely — only YoY % changes are corroborated

Charges / Loans
Partial / conflicting- Open charges reported, with a discrepancy between sources requiring disclosure: (a) Tofler: charges on assets with ICICI Bank Limited totaling ₹7.0 Cr across 3 loans, most recent ₹4.5 Cr created 17-Aug-2024
- (b) TheCompanyCheck: total open charges ₹10.02 Cr, satisfied charges ₹0, itemised as 13-Dec-2024 ₹3 Cr, 17-Aug-2024 ₹4.51 Cr, 31-Mar-2022 ₹1.91 Cr, 31-Mar-2022 ₹60.46 lakh (lender listed only as "Others," not named)
- The 17-Aug-2024 charge amount (₹4.5–4.51 Cr) matches closely across both sources, but total outstanding charge amount and lender name conflict between sources — reported as a source conflict, not resolved
Legal
Partial / conflicting- Indian Kanoon search for "Chai Sutta Bar" returns litigation for a DIFFERENT, related entity — "M/S Chai Sutta Bar Trading Private Limited vs M/S Macha Consumer Products Private Limited" — multiple Delhi High Court orders (dates spanning Dec-2025 through Jul-2026, judges incl. C. Hari Shankar, V. Kameswar Rao, Manmeet Pritam Singh Arora), appears to be an ongoing trademark/IP dispute
- This litigation is attributed to "Chai Sutta Bar Trading Private Limited," NOT to the target entity "Chai Sutta Bar Private Limited" (CIN U55204MP2018PTC044906) — flagged explicitly to avoid entity-confusion misattribution
- Two unrelated Madhya Pradesh High Court criminal matters (Vishek Singh vs State of MP, 2022; Ishu @ Uday @ Udesh vs State of MP, 2022) also surfaced in search but appear to be incidental/location-based matches (e.g., FIR location "Chai Sutta Bar" premises), not corporate litigation involving this company as a party — not attributed to the entity
