Navigating Challenges: The Impact of COVID-19 and Financial Resilience

BCCI’s journey of financial resilience and fluctuations is evident in its recent history. The organization faced a temporary setback in the 2019-20 fiscal year, where a dip in its income tax payment was observed. This decline can be attributed to the disruptive effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to the suspension of cricket activities for several months. Once the game resumed, the implementation of bio-bubbles necessitated increased expenditure, thereby impacting BCCI’s overall financial health.

A Closer Look at BCCI’s Financial Performance

Highlighting BCCI’s financial trajectory over the last few years, we see that in the fiscal year 2020-21, the organization paid Rs 844.92 crore in income tax, presenting a decrease from the Rs 882.29 crore paid in the preceding year (2019-20). However, in the fiscal year 2019, BCCI’s tax payment surged to Rs 815.08 crore, signifying a substantial increase from the Rs 596.63 crore paid in 2017-18.

Insights into Revenue and Expenditure

Delving into the specifics of BCCI’s financial performance, the 2021-22 fiscal year saw the organization achieve a commendable revenue of Rs 7,606 crore. Simultaneously, its expenditure amounted to nearly Rs 3,064 crore.
