The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) has filed a Civil Appeal in the Supreme Court of India against an earlier CESTAT (Delhi) order that had ruled in favour of Dish TV. Back in April 2020, DRI had confirmed a demand of Rs. 56.47 crore in differential duty along with interest and an equivalent penalty against the company. Dish TV challenged this at CESTAT, which on September 23, 2025, allowed the appeal and set aside the DRI order entirely — a clean win for Dish TV. DRI has now taken that favourable order on appeal to the Supreme Court. The company says the financial impact will depend on the final outcome of the Supreme Court proceedings.
For existing shareholders, this is a reminder that the Rs. 56.47 crore tax demand, though quashed at the tribunal level, is not permanently closed. If the Supreme Court reverses CESTAT, Dish TV could again face the duty demand plus interest and penalty, which would be material. In the short term, the stock may see some negative sentiment due to the reopening of the case, but the company currently holds the legal advantage from the CESTAT ruling.
