Matrimony.com Limited held a board meeting on July 8, 2025, where two key decisions were approved. First, Mr. Harigovind Krishnasamy was appointed as the new Chief Financial Officer effective the same day. He is a Chartered Accountant with a US CFA qualification and brings over 20 years of finance experience, previously serving as CFO at edtech startup Embibe (part of Reliance Jio group) and holding senior finance roles at Vedanta, Den Networks, and Jio Platforms. Second, the board approved acquiring a 6.25% stake in Bharat Ek Khoj Spiritual Tech Pvt Ltd for up to Rs 4.40 crore in all-cash consideration. The target is a recently incorporated (December 2024) AI-powered spiritual tech startup offering astrology and Vedic guidance through its platform AskMyGuru.live, founded by ex-Mobile Premier League (MPL) team members. The acquisition is expected to complete within two months and is not a related party transaction.
The external CFO appointment brings experienced finance leadership from major groups like Vedanta and Reliance Jio, which could strengthen financial governance. The small strategic investment (Rs 4.40 crore for 6.25%) diversifies into the astrology/spiritual tech space, complementing Matrimony's existing value proposition, though the financial impact is minor given the small size of the deal.
