Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia Announces BSNL Profit of ₹280 Cr in Q4; FY25 Marks Turnaround after 17 years

Union Minister for Communications Jyotiraditya M. Scindia today announced that BSNL has posted a net profit of ₹280 crore in Q4 of FY25—its second consecutive profitable quarter after a ₹262 crore profit in Q3—signalling a major financial turnaround.

BSNL has reduced its annual loss by 58% to ₹2,247 crore from ₹5,370 crore last year.
This remarkable transformation, Scindia noted, is a direct result of the visionary and reform-driven leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

This marks a sustainable and consistent profitable growth for BSNL, following the net profit it registered in Q3 FY2025—an announcement that was also made by Scindia earlier this year, highlighting the continued trajectory of recovery and operational efficiency under his leadership.

Scindia took to X to make this grand announcement, stating:
“BSNL delivers first back-to-back quarter profits in 17 years! Continuing on its profitable path, BSNL has posted a strong net profit of ₹280 crores in Jan-March quarter of FY25, marking back-to-back profitable quarters after ₹261 crores in FY25 Q3. The consistent turnaround of BSNL reflects the focused and reform-driven leadership of Hon’ble PM Shri @narendramodi ji.”

The company also reported a record EBITDA of ₹5,396 crore, a 149% increase over the previous year, with 27 telecom circles turning EBITDA-positive and 10 achieving PAT-positivity. Revenues rose to ₹20,841 crore, driven by robust performance in mobility, FTTH, leased lines, and a 77% jump in asset monetisation. FY25 also saw BSNL’s highest-ever capital investment of ₹26,022 crore, with a strong emphasis on 4G rollout and fibre expansion.
