About Tea Time Unlisted Shares
Desi Tea Time Limited, a Hyderabad-based retail tea business under the Teatime Group, posted FY25 revenue of Rs 35.43 crore and profit of Rs 1.57 crore (EPS Rs 0.16, ROE 5.22%), both down from FY24, on a balance sheet where non-current investments account for roughly two-thirds of total equity.
The Short Version :
Desi Tea Time Limited (formerly Desi Tea Time Private Limited), part of the Hyderabad-based Teatime Group and operating in the retail industry, runs its tea-focused retail format under the Desi Tea Time brand, with a related 40%-held associate, Teatime Entertainment Private Limited, sitting alongside the core retail business. Revenue from operations came in at Rs 35.43 crore in FY25, down from Rs 45.95 crore in FY24, and profit for the year was Rs 1.57 crore against Rs 2.14 crore the year before, taking EPS to Rs 0.16 from Rs 0.22, book value per share to roughly Rs 3.08 from Rs 2.92, and ROE to 5.22% from 7.50% on closing equity of Rs 30.09 crore.
Why It Trades Where It Does :
The year's numbers reflect a retail business working through a revenue pullback rather than a scale-up: total expenses fell 23.1% to Rs 33.22 crore, roughly tracking the 22.9% drop in revenue, so operating margins held broadly steady even as the top line contracted. Finance costs rose to Rs 1.26 crore from Rs 0.87 crore despite total borrowings actually declining to Rs 10.11 crore from Rs 11.59 crore, largely a timing effect of when debt was drawn down during the year. The balance sheet carries a large non-current investment of Rs 19.97 crore, unchanged year-on-year and equal to roughly two-thirds of total equity, a material chunk of the asset base sitting outside the core retail operation.
Top Risks :
Revenue fell 22.9% and profit fell 26.7% year-on-year, a genuine contraction rather than a one-off dip, and the annual report gives no specific explanation for the decline.
Rs 19.97 crore in non-current investments, roughly two-thirds of total equity, sits on the balance sheet with no disclosed breakdown in what's been reviewed here; investors should understand what this is before relying on book value.
The 40%-held associate, Teatime Entertainment Private Limited, is loss-making (a loss of about Rs 5.5 lakh for the year on a small asset base), a modest but real drag on group-level returns.
ROE fell to 5.22% from 7.50%, a meaningfully thin return for a retail operating business, and a further revenue decline would compress it further given the fixed cost base (depreciation and finance costs both rose even as revenue fell).
Top Opportunities :
Despite the revenue decline, the company kept cost discipline broadly in line with the smaller topline, avoiding a sharper margin collapse that often accompanies a retail slowdown.
Trade receivables grew to Rs 11.68 crore from Rs 10.85 crore even as revenue fell, which could reflect either extended credit terms to drive volume recovery or a receivables quality issue worth watching in the next filing.
The company reduced total borrowings during the year (short and long-term combined down to Rs 10.11 crore from Rs 11.59 crore), showing some balance sheet deleveraging even through a weaker revenue year.
As part of the broader Teatime Group with an established retail brand and multi-year operating history since 2017, the company has an existing footprint to rebuild volume from if the FY25 dip proves cyclical rather than structural.

Buying, selling and holding unlisted shares
Applies to every company on Priveq- How do I buy Tea Time unlisted shares?
Priveq Investech Private Limited is the named counterparty on every transaction. To buy Tea Time unlisted shares: complete KYC once (PAN, Aadhaar, bank details, and demat account information — SEBI-compliant, typically approved within 24 hours), then submit your order through your Priveq dashboard specifying quantity. Our team confirms price and payment details with you directly. Once payment is confirmed, Tea Time shares are transferred off-market straight to your demat account, with no pooling and no middlemen.
- How do I sell Tea Time unlisted shares?
Submit an Express Sell Interest for Tea Time through your Priveq dashboard, specifying quantity, the same way a buy order is placed. Priveq quotes you a bid price, which may differ from the live Buy price shown to buyers, since unlisted-share pricing works on a bid-ask basis rather than a single quote. Once you accept, you'll need to provide your Client Master List (CML), a cancelled cheque or bank details, and PAN. If you hold shares with CDSL, transfer can also be completed digitally via CDSL Easiest. You transfer Tea Time shares to Priveq first, and payment follows once the transfer is confirmed received, typically the same day, T+1, or occasionally T+2, communicated to you directly. For sizeable transactions worth crores of rupees, an escrow arrangement can be used instead, at the sole consent of both parties.
- What is the minimum investment for Tea Time unlisted shares?
Minimum investment varies by company and is shown as the Min Investment figure on this page. Tea Time's minimum is ₹36.
- Is there a maximum investment limit?
There's no fixed maximum investment limit for Tea Time unlisted shares. For sizeable transactions worth crores of rupees, an escrow arrangement can be used at the sole consent of both parties, the same mechanism available on the sell side.
- Is buying Tea Time unlisted shares legal in India?
Yes. Buying and selling unlisted shares in India is legal and is subject to relevant SEBI regulations, including the mandatory lock-in period after listing, stamp duty, and depository participant charges on each transaction. Priveq's own KYC process is built to be SEBI-compliant.
- What is the lock-in period for Tea Time unlisted shares?
Tea Time has not filed a DRHP yet, so no listing date or lock-in period applies at this stage. Once an IPO is filed, this answer updates to reflect the applicable SME or Mainboard lock-in.
- What happens if Tea Time's IPO is delayed or withdrawn?
If an IPO is delayed, shares remain unlisted and continue to trade on the desk at Priveq's indicative price, with no lock-in in effect until an actual listing happens. If a company formally withdraws its DRHP, the same applies: shares stay unlisted, with no lock-in period until and unless a fresh IPO process begins.
- How are capital gains on Tea Time unlisted shares taxed?
If you sell unlisted shares, including Tea Time, within 24 months of purchase, the gain is taxed as short-term capital gain at your applicable income tax slab rate. Beyond 24 months, it is taxed as long-term capital gain at 12.5 percent, without indexation benefit, under the rules effective from 23 July 2024. If Tea Time lists and you sell after listing, the applicable tax treatment shifts to listed-security rates, with the holding period still measured from your original unlisted purchase date. This is general information, not tax advice; investors should confirm their specific position with a tax advisor.
- Can NRIs invest in Tea Time unlisted shares?
Yes, on a non-repatriable basis. NRIs can invest using funds from an NRO account; sale proceeds stay within India unless repatriated separately under RBI's own limits. Priveq does not currently support repatriable investment (NRE/FCNR-funded), which would require the investee company to file additional RBI paperwork as foreign direct investment.
- Does Priveq charge a platform fee on top of the share price?
No. The price quoted to you is all-in; there is no separate platform fee or brokerage added on top.
- How does Priveq determine the desk price for Tea Time?
Priveq's desk price reflects several inputs together, not a single formula: the seller's ask price at the time, current demand and supply on the platform for Tea Time specifically, broader sentiment in the unlisted and pre-IPO market, how Tea Time's sector and listed peers are trading, the company's own recent financial performance and IPO-stage developments, and recent transaction history where deals have actually closed.
Because unlisted shares trade over the counter rather than on an exchange, this price is indicative, not a continuously live quoted market price, and the actual deal price is confirmed with you directly before a transaction closes.
- Is Priveq SEBI-registered? Does it give investment advice?
Priveq is not a SEBI-registered stock exchange and not a SEBI-registered investment adviser. Priveq Investech Private Limited operates Priveq.in as a research and information platform for unlisted and pre-IPO shares, and is the named counterparty on transactions executed through the platform. Nothing on this page is investment advice; it's information to help you evaluate a company and decide for yourself.
- Am I eligible to invest through Priveq if I'm not an HNI?
Yes. Priveq isn't a stock exchange with membership restrictions, and investing isn't limited to HNIs. Depending on the company, entry points can start as low as ₹20,000, though the minimum for any specific company is shown as the Min Investment figure on its page.
- What documents do I receive after buying unlisted shares?
You receive an email acknowledging and confirming your order, along with a deal note or invoice recording the transaction details.
- What happens to my shares or money if a deal falls through?
Because Priveq is the direct counterparty on every transaction rather than just connecting a buyer and seller, this risk sits with Priveq, not with you. If a deal falls through after you've committed funds or shares, they remain safe, and Priveq guarantees a refund.
