AI summary

Dish TV India's Board, at its meeting on August 12, 2025, approved the appointment of Mr. Arun Kumar Kapoor and Ms. Heena Naishadh Bhatt as Additional Directors in the Independent Director category, on the recommendation of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. Both appointments will become effective from the date of Ministry of Information and Broadcasting approval under the Up-linking Guidelines, or earlier if the Board falls below the statutory minimum of three Directors. Each director will serve a five-year term and is not liable to retire by rotation. Mr. Kapoor brings 34+ years of leadership experience across FMCG, Telecom, BPO and Media/DTH sectors, having previously worked with Dish TV India, Big TV DTH, Airtel and United Breweries. Ms. Bhatt brings 34+ years in banking and finance, with senior roles at Bank of India, ICICI Bank and IDBI Bank, and currently serves as COO of Tripoli Management Pvt. Ltd. Shareholder approval will be sought separately as required under regulations.

Likely market impact

The appointments strengthen the Board's composition after it apparently came close to the statutory minimum of three directors. Adding two experienced independent directors in media/DTH and banking domains may improve governance and bring relevant sector expertise, though their effectiveness is contingent on MIB approval under broadcasting guidelines.
