MUMBAI: It’s not just the daily soaps serving plot twists Balaji Telefilms just delivered one of its own, posting a dramatic turnaround from loss to profit in its latest annual results. Balaji Telefilms Ltd., one of India’s most iconic television and content production houses, has posted a stunning financial comeback, reporting a standalone net profit of Rs 90.59 crore for the financial year ending March 31, 2025. This is a significant leap from a net loss of Rs 22.52 crore the previous year, a turnaround worthy of prime-time applause.

According to the audited results filed with stock exchanges and published in leading dailies on 5 July, the company’s total standalone income from operations stood at Rs 45,306.92 crore for FY25. On a consolidated basis, it reported a net profit of Rs 84.57 crore, recovering sharply from a loss of Rs 26.08 crore in FY24.

This reversal comes despite a notable dip in revenue for the final quarter ending March 2025, where standalone income dropped to Rs 8.63 crore, down from Rs 13.46 crore in the same quarter last year. Still, profits surged in the final stretch, with the company posting Rs 99.31 crore in Q4 profit, a complete U-turn from the Rs 22.52 crore loss in the comparable quarter.

The earnings per share (EPS) rose to Rs 6.68 basic for the year, up from negative territory last year signalling restored investor confidence.

The company, led by Chairman Jeetendra Kapoor, published the results in Financial Express and Mumbai Lakshadeep and noted that detailed financials are available on its website as well as on BSE and NSE portals.

With flagship shows still ruling the ratings and digital spin-off ventures gaining traction, Balaji seems to have re-scripted its business drama into a tale of fiscal finesse. Whether this rebound is a one-season wonder or the start of a long-running hit remains to be seen but for now, the curtains have risen on a new chapter of profitability.
