Distributes cable television channels and fixed-line broadband internet to customers across India, with cable TV being the larger line by revenue. In FY26, cable television contributed 70.2% of segment revenue but ran at an operating loss, while broadband added 27.1% with a small operating profit. A 'dealing in securities' line brought in the remaining 2.7% and accounted for nearly all of the segment-level operating profit. Costs are dominated by other operating expenses at 81% of revenue and depreciation at 14.4%, with employees at just 4% — typical of an asset-heavy network business. The Reliance group and the Raheja family entities together form the promoter set, and a contingent liability of Rs 3,201.93 crore from Department of Telecommunications show cause notices over license fees is being contested without a provision.

This document is a statistical summary of publicly filed information and market data, prepared by software from primary sources: SEBI results XBRL filed with BSE and NSE, LODR disclosures, shareholding patterns, exchange price data. It contains no research recommendation, no price target and no opinion on the merits of any security, and is not a research report within the meaning of the SEBI (Research Analysts) Regulations, 2014, Regulation 2(1)(w)(vii). Financial statements are as filed (consolidated where the company files consolidated results). Ratios are computed over filed lines. Where a figure is unavailable the table shows a dash rather than an estimate. The business brief is written by MarketPing's reader from the annual report and checked against it; no figure in a table was generated by a model. Nothing here constitutes investment advice, an offer or a solicitation; readers should consult a SEBI-registered adviser before acting. MarketPing is not a SEBI-registered intermediary.
