In the second quarter, BSNL reported a net loss of ₹1,357 crore, wider than the ₹1,048 crore of Q1 and the ₹1,241.7 crore it lost in Q2 of FY25, the company's financial statements dated 14 November show.

BSNL's higher losses can be attributed to an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses and finance cost for the company. Depreciation and amortization in the quarter gone by stood at ₹2,477 crore, 57% more than the figure for the year-ago quarter. It was 14.5% more that the preceding quarter.
