New Delhi, Feb. 1 -- The Centre will infuse Rs.33,757 crore in state-run telecom operator Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL), according to the Union Budget for 2025-25. This capital infusion is down 53% from Rs.72,027 crore in the revised final allocation for FY25.

The company is expected to start generating strong annual growth in revenue, after a turnaround plan saw BSNL execute a Rs.15,000 crore 4G deployment contract.

The deployment phase is nearly complete, with BSNL 4G services expected to come online by the end of this fiscal. The Centre had allocated Rs.56,785 crore for BSNL's turnaround in FY24, before ramping it up to Rs.82,916 crore in initial allocation for FY25.
