BLS International Reports Record Sales Amid Rising Interest Expenses and Receivables Challenges

BLS International Services has recently undergone a financial trend adjustment, reflecting a robust performance in the quarter ending June 2025. The company reported its highest net sales at Rs 710.57 crore, alongside a peak in PBDIT at Rs 204.23 crore. Profit before tax, excluding other income, also reached a record Rs 175.12 crore, contributing to a strong profit after tax of Rs 171.00 crore. The earnings per share for the quarter stood at Rs 4.15, indicating solid profitability.
However, challenges remain for BLS International. The interest expense for the first nine months has surged to Rs 26.43 crore, marking a significant growth of 210.94%. Additionally, the debtors turnover ratio for the half-year is at its lowest, recorded at 18.02 times, which may indicate issues with receivables management.

In terms of market performance, BLS International has shown resilience compared to the Sensex. Over the past week, the stock returned 7.45%, while the Sensex declined by 0.77%. In the last month, the stock gained 9.45%, contrasting with a 3.26% drop in the Sensex. Over a three-year period, BLS International has delivered an impressive return of 225.87%, significantly outperforming the Sensex's 38.23% return. This performance highlights the company's strong position within the tour and travel-related services industry.
