BEL To Report Earnings On July 29: What To Expect

Bharat Electronics is scheduled to post its earnings for the quarter ended July on Monday, July 29.

What To Expect: Brokerages mostly expect the defence major to post muted earnings. Equirus in its preview note said that the first quarter is typically the weakest for (BEL) in terms of execution, accounting for around 15% of annual sales.

Consequently, margins are also the lowest among the four quarters. As a result, the analysts added that 1Q performance has minimal impact on the full year's numbers. The analysts expect the defence PSU to post net sales of around ₹3,704 crore, with a net profit of ₹548.2 crore.
