AI summary

Q2 FY27 consolidated revenue rose 9.4% to Rs 545 crore and operating EBITDA improved to Rs 19 crore from a Rs 0.5 crore loss; margin reached 3.4%. H1 revenue rose 9.9% to Rs 1,061 crore. News advertising demand fell about 13% as corporate spending was weak and ratings remained suspended, although government ads were strong. Standalone loss was Rs 63 crore; consolidated profit was Rs 53 crore. News18 Marathi merger received court approval.

Likely market impact

Mixed: revenue and EBITDA growth support sentiment, but weak ad demand, suspended ratings and a Rs 63 crore standalone loss are risks.
