Current scenario
- Q2 FY27 operating revenues grew 13% YoY driven by strategic investments in the sports business (FIFA World Cup and newly launched Unite8 Sports channels) and digital offerings.
- ZEE5 digital revenues more than doubled YoY, clocking INR 6.3 billion, driven by multilingual content slates and sports streaming.

- Subscription revenue grew 30% YoY, aided by higher ARPU, subscriber growth in digital, and pricing revisions in linear TV.
Changes in trends
- Operating costs increased by 18% YoY due to higher marketing, advertising, and programming expenses associated with FIFA and new strategic initiatives (such as Bullet and KidZ).
- EBITDA stood at INR 708 million with an EBITDA margin of 3.2% (impacted by front-loaded investments in new initiatives; excluding this, margins would have been mid-to-high single-digit).

- Cash and treasury investments as of September 2026 stood at INR 25.7 billion, including INR 7.4 billion received from preferential warrant allotment to promoters.
