BBTC's board approved audited financial results for Q4 and FY25 (year ended March 31, 2025). On a standalone basis, the company swung to a profit after tax of Rs. 119.25 crore from a loss of Rs. 3.65 crore in FY24, largely driven by Rs. 182.21 crore in dividend income from a subsidiary and a Rs. 62.31 crore gain on sale of property. Revenue from operations grew modestly to Rs. 275.11 crore (up ~5% YoY), while operating margin remained negative at -14.47% (improved from -18.22%). Total income jumped to Rs. 472.44 crore. The statutory auditor issued an unmodified opinion on standalone results but a qualified opinion on consolidated results, with an emphasis of matter regarding a SEBI order against associate Go Airlines involving Rs. 225 lakh penalties. No final dividend was declared since an interim dividend of Rs. 17 per share was already paid. The 160th AGM is scheduled for August 14, 2025.
The headline profit is inflated by one-time items (subsidiary dividend, asset sales) and does not reflect strong core operations, as core tea business remains loss-making at the operating level. The qualified audit opinion on consolidated numbers and the Go Airlines-related emphasis of matter are minor red flags for shareholders. Total shareholder returns stand at Rs. 17 per share via interim dividend.
