GMR Airports Q3 results: Net profit at Rs 202 crore driven by growth in passenger traffic at major airports
GMR Airports Ltd (GAL) reported a net profit of Rs 202.1 crore for the October-December quarter of FY25, reversing the Rs 486.4 crore loss recorded in the same period last year. This recovery was driven by growth in passenger traffic at major airports, including Delhi, Hyderabad, and Mopa in Goa, as well as improved operational performance. Revenue from operations increased by 19.2% to Rs 2,653.2 crore, compared to Rs 2,226.7 crore in Q3 FY24. The increase was primarily due to higher passenger traffic and tariff adjustments, with expenses rising slightly to Rs 1,661.5 crore from Rs 1,558.1 crore due to ongoing expansion projects.

2024, the year India defeated China's salami-slicing strategy
China Sea to Himalayan frontiers, Beijing’s methodical approach has left neighbouring countries scrambling to respond. China shares its border with more than a dozen countries and it has had border disputes with at least six of them over the past few years. On its border disputes with its neighbors, China has mostly gone unchallenged, gradually pushing its salami-slicing strategy forward. But 2024 was a turning point: India was the first country in past few decades to decisively stop China in its tracks and refuse to yield to its tried-and-tested game. India’s resistance proved to be a firm message that China’s expansionist ambitions can't always go unchecked.
