New Delhi: The Delhi High Court has set aside the two-year debarment imposed by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on BLS International Services Limited, effectively restoring the company’s eligibility to participate in future MEA tenders and assignments with Indian missions abroad.
In a regulatory filing to the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and BSE on December 18, BLS International said the court has quashed the MEA order that had barred the company from future tenders for a period of two years. The company had earlier informed the exchanges on October 11, 2025, about the MEA’s debarment order and subsequently challenged it by filing a writ petition before the Delhi High Court. The court has now ruled in favour of BLS International, setting aside the debarment order, the filing said.
“Consequently, the debarment imposed on the Company pursuant to the said order stands quashed,” BLS International stated in its disclosure, adding that the update has been shared in compliance with Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, for the information of investors and stakeholders.
BLS International, which provides visa, consular, and citizen services to governments and diplomatic missions, said the intimation has been formally submitted to both stock exchanges and taken on record. The filing was signed by Company Secretary and Compliance Officer Dharak A. Mehta.
