Boeing reports net loss of $612 million in Q2 2025
New Delhi: US-based aircraft manufacturer, the Boeing Company's net loss for the April-June quarter (Q2 2025) stood at $612 million, it said in a statement on Tuesday. The company had reported a net loss of $1,439 million in the same quarter a year ago. Meanwhile, revenue rose to $22.75 billion from $16.87 billion in the second quarter of 2024. The operating margin stood at 0.8 per cent against 6.5 per cent year-on-year. For the quarter, the loss from operations improved to $176 million from $1,090 million in Q2 2024. The company reported an operating cash flow of $227 million against a negative cash flow of $3,6923 million in the same quarter a year ago. The company's commercial aeroplanes' revenue of $10.9 billion for the second quarter, and the operating margin of (5.1) per cent, primarily reflects higher deliveries. The 737 programme increased the production rate to 38 per month in the quarter and plans to stabilise at that rate before requesting approval to increase to 42 per month later this year, the company said. The company said that it has booked 455 net orders in the quarter for commercial aeroplanes, including aeroplanes for Qatar Airways and British Airways. Commercial aeroplanes delivered 150 aeroplanes during the quarter, and backlog included over 5,900 aeroplanes valued at $522 billion. The company claimed that since May, the production has remained steady. "Our fundamental changes to strengthen safety and quality are producing improved results as we stabilise our operations and deliver higher quality aeroplanes, products and services to our customers," Boeing President and Chief Executive Officer Kelly Ortberg said. As we look to the second half of the year, we remain focused on restoring trust and making continued progress in our recovery while operating in a dynamic global environment, he added. Meanwhile, shares of Boeing were trading at $234.35, down 0.87 per cent at around 7.14 pm IST.

Recovery amount at Rs 338 crore: Govt raised tax demand of Rs 35,104 crore under foreign black money law over last 10 years
The government has raised tax demand of Rs 35,104 crore under the Black Money (Undisclosed Foreign Income and Assets) and Imposition of Tax Act, 2015 over the last decade, Minister of State for Finance Pankaj Chaudhary said in Rajya Sabha on Tuesday. However, recovery amount in the form of tax, penalty and interest demand under the Act has been much lower at Rs 338 crore during July 1, 2015 to March 31, 2025 along with 163 prosecution complaints filed till March 31, 2025, data shared in the Upper House showed. In a written response to a question by CPI(M) MP John Brittas, wherein he asked about details of international deposits, Chaudhary said tax demand of Rs 21,719 crore has been created as a result of completed assessments under the Black Money (Undisclosed Foreign Income and Assets) and Imposition of Tax Act, 2015 during July 1, 2015 to March 31, 2025. In addition, tax demand of Rs 13,385 crore has been raised till March 31, 2025 on account of penalties imposed under various sections of the Act. On the question of whether Indian-linked funds in Swiss banks surged more than three times the previous year's amount, Chaudhary said there are some media reports based on Swiss National Bank (SNB) statistics which mention that Indian linked funds in Swiss banks have risen in 2024 as compared to previous year's amount. However, Chaudhary, pointed out that as per Swiss authorities, the data in respect of SNB statistics includes, inter alia, amounts due in respect of customer deposits (including in foreign branches of Swiss Banks located in any country), other liabilities as well as amounts due to banks. 'The Swiss authorities have also clarified that the SNB annual banking statistics should not be used for analysing deposits held by residents of India in Switzerland,' he said. Indian money in Swiss banks more than tripled in 2024 to 3.5 billion Swiss francs (CHF), or approximately Rs 37,600 crore on the back of a huge jump in funds held through local branches and other financial institutions, news agency PTI had reported last month. On the query to provide details of outstanding tax demand raised from the data shared with India via Automatic Exchange of Information under India-Switzerland tax agreement, the Minister said there is no centralised data for the specific query on country-wise undisclosed foreign income and the action taken. 'Tax demand arising in cases of undisclosed foreign income or assets can pertain to multiple jurisdictions. Country-wise bifurcation of such demand is not maintained centrally,' Chaudhary said. For details and status of enquiries conducted regarding Swiss holdings, the Minister said such enquiries are conducted on a case-by-case basis by the jurisdictional authorities. 'Whenever any instance of tax evasion is detected, appropriate action under Direct Tax Laws, including searches, surveys, enquiries, assessment of income, levy of taxes, penalties, as well as filing of prosecution complaints in criminal courts, as may be applicable, is taken,' he said. Replying to the question about the steps taken to recover unpaid taxes, penalties, or interest by Indian citizens or entities holding Swiss deposits, Chaudhary said the Income Tax Department has established a mechanism for recovery of demand that consists of outstanding tax, penalty and interest as per the provisions of the Black Money (Undisclosed Foreign Income and Assets) and Imposition of Tax Act, 2015, which apply to cases of undisclosed foreign income and assets in any country abroad. Such taxes, penalties and interest form part of the total tax liability of each assessee and is recovered in accordance with law, he said.
