Bangalore International Airport Ltd (BIAL), which operates the Kempegowda International Airport, has reported a remarkable turnaround in its financial performance for FY25. After recording a loss of \u20b923 crore in FY24, the airport is now back in the black with a net profit of \u20b9510 crore.<\/p>\n
This shift to profitability comes on the back of strong growth in operations, especially after the expansion of the newly developed Terminal 2 (T2). The T2 terminal, designed to increase passenger handling capacity and improve service quality, has played a key role in boosting the airport\u2019s overall performance.<\/p>\n
Backed by Canadian billionaire Prem Watsa, BIAL reported a robust 43% jump in revenue, which soared to \u20b93,732 crore in FY25 from \u20b92,613 crore in the previous fiscal. This impressive growth in revenue has been a major contributor to the company\u2019s profitable year.<\/p>\n
According to a note from credit rating agency Crisil, Kempegowda International Airport, now the third-largest in India, handled 41.88 million passengers in FY25. This is an 11.6% increase compared to 37.53 million passengers in FY24. The airport also crossed the milestone of handling over 5 lakh metric tonnes of cargo, reinforcing its importance as a major air cargo hub in the country.<\/p>\n
While Crisil shared this financial update, BIAL has not yet responded to requests for additional details on the financials.<\/p>\n
The surge in passenger numbers, strong cargo operations, and the operational benefits of Terminal 2 have all contributed to the airport\u2019s financial revival. With these achievements, Kempegowda International Airport continues to strengthen its position as South India\u2019s busiest airport and a key driver of regional connectivity and economic growth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
