BSNL Eyes Rs 29,000 Cr
Revenue This Year
State
run
telecom firm BSNL is expected to garner
revenue of Rs 29,000 crore in FY 2014-15.
The company also believes that it can
manage a growth rate of 4 to 5 percent by
the end of this fiscal year, its CMD said.
“At a growth rate of 4 % to 5%, we hope
to cross Rs 29,000 crore this year,” BSNL
CMD Anupam Shrivastava told
TeleAnalysis.
The company has been going through a
rough phase in the last few years and had
reported loss in the last five fiscals in a
row. However, the PSU expects to
become EBIDTA positive this year.
“In FY 2014-15, we would be operational
profit or EBITDA comfortable,” he added.
The last profit it had reported was in 2009
when it reported a profit of Rs 575 crore.
Since then it has reported loss.
In FY 2014 BSNL had reported a loss of
Rs 7,085 crore compared to a loss of Rs
7,884 crore in FY13 and Rs 8,851 crore in
FY 2012, showing improvement over the
last three fiscals.
“We plan to be profitable by FY 2018-19,”
Shrivastava added.
It had reported a loss of Rs 6,384 crore in
FY2011 and Rs 1,823 crore in FY10.
The company is working on multiple
projects this year including National Optic
Fibre Network (NOFN), NFS for defence
and LWE project for the naxal hit areas.
The company is also planning to complete
the phase 7 expansion of its networks by
which it will add another 15 million lines
to its existing network.
The adding of 15 million lines was a part
of BSNL’s Phase 7 expansion plan for
which the company is investing around Rs
4,804 crore.
“The project is planned to be completed
by June 2015,” Shrivastava told
TeleAnalysis earlier. “We have completed
more than 60% of the project so far,” he
had said.
The Phase 7 of BSNL was planned to
upgrade the state run operator’s existing
and old network by creating 15 million
additional mobile capacity. The capacity
addition will take care for both 2G and 3G.
In Phase 7, BSNL is building 27,000
towers of which 15,000 will be for 2G and
12,000 for 3G. Presently, BSNL has around
97,000 towers. Phase 7 will help in
plugging the gap of 2G, removing blind
spots in mobile network and increasing
data capacity by 30-40 times.
