## Summary

Info Edge said matchmaking billings rose 23.1% in the September quarter, with Jeevansathi up 18.4% and Aisle up 40%.

## Key takeaways

- Info Edge's standalone billings rose 12.8% to ₹822.3 crore in the September quarter.
- Matchmaking billings rose 23.1%, with Jeevansathi up 18.4% to ₹39.7 crore and Aisle up 40%.
- Its Shiksha education site fell 27.2%, which the company tied to AI search answering queries directly.

Info Edge (India) Ltd, the parent of the Naukri jobs site and the Jeevansathi matrimony service, said on October 8 that standalone billings for the quarter ended September 30 rose 12.8% to ₹822.3 crore, from ₹729 crore a year earlier. The figures come from a quarterly business update released ahead of full results.

Matchmaking was one of the fastest-growing lines. Jeevansathi billings rose 18.4% to ₹39.7 crore from ₹33.5 crore. Aisle, the company's dating app, grew billings 40%, though no rupee figure was given. Combined, matchmaking billings rose 23.1% year over year.

Elsewhere, recruitment billings rose 12.6% to ₹613.8 crore and the 99acres property portal grew 21.2% to ₹148.3 crore. The Shiksha education site fell 27.2% to ₹20.5 crore, a decline the company attributed to AI-driven search engines answering queries directly and sending less referral traffic.

Why it matters: Indian matchmaking is growing at double digits while the largest Western apps report shrinking payer counts, and the fastest growth here comes from a dating app positioned for serious, marriage-minded users. For operators, India rewards intent-led products. The Shiksha number is a separate warning: businesses that depend on search referrals, including dating sites that rely on SEO for acquisition, are already losing traffic to AI answers.
