Big Tree Entertainment, the company behind online ticketing major BookMyShow, has reported a consolidated net profit of ₹192 crore for the financial year ended March 2025, marking a sharp rise from ₹109 crore recorded in the previous fiscal. The growth was largely fuelled by robust performance in ticketing and a rapidly expanding live events business.
As per filings with the Registrar of Companies (RoC), the company’s total income increased significantly to ₹1,869 crore in FY25, compared with ₹1,430 crore in FY24. During the same period, total expenditure also rose to ₹1,704 crore from ₹1,320 crore, reflecting higher operating costs associated with scaling up large-format live events.
The surge in revenue and expenses was primarily attributed to the expansion of live entertainment offerings, including major music festivals, touring concerts, and comedy shows. BookMyShow, however, declined to officially comment on its financial performance.
India’s largest online entertainment ticketing platform, BookMyShow competes with players such as Zomato-backed District. Beyond movie ticketing, the company has built a strong live events portfolio, hosting and managing popular properties like Lollapalooza India.
Online ticketing continued to be the company’s biggest revenue contributor, generating ₹828 crore in FY25, up from ₹741 crore a year earlier. Meanwhile, revenue from live events saw a steep jump to ₹756 crore from ₹455 crore, highlighting growing consumer demand for concerts and on-ground experiences.
In 2025, BookMyShow served as the ticketing partner for British rock band Coldplay’s India concerts under the Music of the Spheres World Tour. The company also benefited from a strong film release calendar during the year.
