BSE shares soared nearly 11% in early trading on August 8, driven by exceptional Q1 results. The stock exchange reported a dramatic rise in net profit and significant revenue growth, showcasing a robust start to FY25 and generating strong investor interest.
In Q1 of FY25, BSE’s net profit increased nearly fourfold year-over-year to Rs 265 crore, compared to Rs 72.6 crore in the same period last year. This significant increase is attributed to solid operational performance and strategic financial management.
Revenue from operations for BSE surged by over 180% to Rs 607.7 crore, up from Rs 215.62 crore in Q1 of the previous year. This jump was partially boosted by exceptional gains in the previous year from divestment activities.
The company’s EBITDA margin reached a record high of 47% during the quarter, reflecting a substantial improvement from 33% in the previous year’s corresponding quarter. This indicates enhanced profitability and operational efficiency at BSE.
BSE is also focusing on implementing uniform charges across different client segments. This initiative aims to standardise earnings and ensure stable revenue streams, addressing concerns that fluctuations might negatively impact the company’s financial health.
