Macquarie has reiterated its ‘Outperform’ rating on Bharat Electronics Ltd (BEL) with a target price of ₹400, calling the Q4FY25 performance a strong finish to the year. The company’s robust order book and margin expansion guidance have improved near-term visibility, despite a delay in the QR-SAM order.
BEL reported an 18.4% YoY rise in net profit to ₹2,127 crore, with revenue up 6.8% to ₹9,149.6 crore. EBITDA surged 23.2% YoY to ₹2,816 crore, with margin expanding to 30.8% from 26.7%.
Macquarie noted that EBITDA and PAT beat consensus estimates, driven by stronger operating leverage and cost control. FY26 margin guidance came in better than expected, and Macquarie sees BEL’s past R&D and long-standing defence relationships as increasingly productive.
