7. BUSINESS OPERATIONS/PERFORMANCE OF
THECOMPANYANDITSMAJORSUBSIDIARIES

The developments in business operations/performance of
the Company and its major subsidiaries consolidated with
the Company are as below :

A. Broadband Business

The Company continued to strengthen its
broadband business through the deployment of
advanced Fibre-to-the-Home (“
FTTH”) technology,
supported by digitization and automation
initiatives that enhanced network performance and
customer experience. These investments have
enabled customers to enjoy seamless access to
high-definition content, including 4K and 8K video
streaming, as well as improved online gaming and
video conferencing experiences.

As on March 31, 2026, the Company served 1.02
million wireline broadband subscribers, reflecting the
sustained demand for reliable high-speed broadband
connectivity across households. The availability of
unlimited data across all broadband plans continued
to be a key differentiator, enabling customers to
use data-intensive applications without concerns
regarding bandwidth restrictions or additional
usage charges. Average monthly data consumption
per FTTH subscriber exceeded 357 GB during the
year, with a 3% increase over the previous year,
demonstrating growing customer engagement and
confidence in the Company's network capabilities.

In line with its commitment to delivering superior user
experience, the Company introduced industry-first
dual-band Optical Network Units (ONUs) equipped
with integrated Wi-Fi band-steering technology.
This feature automatically connects devices to the
most suitable frequency band, ensuring optimized
performance and a seamless connectivity
experience without requiring manual intervention.

The Company remained focused on enhancing
service quality and operational excellence.
Proactive network improvement initiatives led to
a 28% reduction in network-related complaints
between March 2024 and March 2025.
Furthermore, 87% of non-network customer issues
were resolved within one hour, underscoring the
Company's commitment to prompt and effective
customer support. These efforts contributed to
achieving a Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) score
of 96%, reflecting high levels of customer trust
and satisfaction.

The Company continued to enhance customer
engagement and operational efficiency through
technology-driven initiatives and digital innovation.
During the year, several key initiatives were
implemented to improve service delivery,
streamline operations, and strengthen the overall
customer experience.

Key initiatives undertaken during the year
include:

• AI-Powered WhatsApp Support:

Introduced an AI-enabled WhatsApp
chatbot to provide customers with 24x7
assistance for billing-related queries, account
information, and subscription renewals,
offering a convenient and seamless
self-service experience.

• Automation for Operational Excellence:

Deployed AI-powered tools to support internal
teams in troubleshooting and customer
issue registration, enabling faster resolution,
improved productivity, and data-driven
decision-making through real-time insights.

• Customer-Preferred Installation Scheduling:

Introduced a facility for customers to
select installation time slots based on their
convenience. This initiative has enhanced
service efficiency and contributed to achieving
a 72% same-day activation rate, positioning
the Company among the fastest service
providers for new broadband installations
in the industry.

During the year under review, the Broadband
Business recorded revenue of ? 581.98 crore with
a subscriber base of 1.02 million, as compared to
revenue of ? 602.12 crore with a subscriber base of
1.06 million in the previous year.

B. Cable Television Business:

Hathway Digital Limited (“Hathway Digital”),
the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company,
continued to remain one of the leading Multi-System
Operators in India, providing digital cable television
services across a wide geographic footprint
through its robust fibre-based distribution network
and technology-enabled platforms. During the
financial year ended March 31, 2026, Hathway
Digital continued to offer a diverse mix of Standard
Definition (“
SD”) and High-Definition (“HD”)
television channels, including its own platform
services, catering to varied consumer preferences
across entertainment, sports, movies, news and
lifestyle genres. The cable services of Hathway
Digital were available across more than 700 towns
and adjoining areas, including key metropolitan and
mini-metropolitan markets, supported by two major
headend facilities with four retransmission centres
and an optical fibre network spanning approximately
41,000 kilometres. As on March 31, 2026, Hathway
Digital serviced approximately 4.63 million viewers

across India, including through fellow subsidiaries
and joint ventures.

During the year under review, Hathway Digital
undertook a restructuring exercise aimed at
simplifying its group structure and improving
operational efficiencies. Accordingly, Hathway
Kokan Crystal Cable Network Limited, Hathway
Bhaskar CCN Multi Entertainment Private Limited,
Hathway Cable MCN Nanded Private Limited,
Channels India Network Private Limited and Elite
Cable Network Private Limited, being step-down
wholly-owned subsidiaries, were amalgamated
with Hathway Digital with effect from April 22,
2025. The consolidation has resulted in improved
operational integration, reduction in administrative
layers and better resource optimisation across the
cable television business.

During the year, Telecom Regulatory Authority
of India (TRAI) notified the Telecommunication
(Broadcasting and Cable) Services Interconnection
(Addressable Systems) (Seventh Amendment)
Regulations, 2026, which became effective from
April 1, 2026. The revised regulations introduced a
financial year-based audit framework for distributors
of television channels, streamlined provisions
relating to system audits and infrastructure sharing
arrangements, and prescribed enhanced standards
for auditor independence and technical qualifications.
The amendments are expected to improve
transparency, reduce duplication in compliance
processes and strengthen overall governance
within the broadcasting distribution ecosystem.

The industry also continued to raise concerns
regarding the regulatory imbalance between
conventional cable and DTH operators on one
hand, and OTT-based digital platforms on the
other, particularly in relation to tariff regulation,
quality-of-service obligations and compliance
requirements. Industry bodies remained engaged
with policymakers and regulators to advocate for a
level-playing field and a more predictable regulatory
framework for the sector.

During the year, Hathway Digital continued to
invest in network modernisation and technology
enhancements with a focus on improving
service quality and customer experience.
Investments were made towards strengthening
digital headend infrastructure and expanding
HD content offerings across multiple genres.
Hathway Digital also expanded deployment of
HEVC-enabled HD set-top boxes and hybrid
OTT-enabled devices to provide an integrated

viewing experience combining conventional
television and digital content services.

Hathway Digital further introduced QR
code-enabled digital payment functionality through
the Electronic Programme Guide (EPG) platform
to facilitate seamless payments and faster service
activation for Local Cable Operators (“
LCOs”).
API-based integrations were also implemented to
enable real-time activation of subscriber services
through applications used by LCOs. In addition,
customer self-care platforms and subscriber
portals were upgraded to provide enhanced
convenience in relation to channel selection,
subscription management and recharge services.
Customer support infrastructure was further
strengthened through multilingual assistance,
dedicated field support teams and enhanced
service response mechanisms. Hathway Digital
also continued to invest in strengthening its IT
systems, platform security and digital infrastructure
to support reliable and secure content delivery
across all operational markets.

Hathway Digital also provides Internet Protocol (IP)
TV services, however the same is at a very nascent
stage and Hathway Digital is working towards
scaling the IP TV operations.
