NDTV Rights Issue

NDTV Rights Issue dates are 22 September – 8 October 2025.

New Delhi Television (NDTV), part of the Adani Group’s AMG Media Networks portfolio, is a leading Indian news broadcaster with a significant footprint across TV and digital platforms. The company operates prominent channels, including NDTV 24×7 (English), NDTV India (Hindi), NDTV Profit (business news), and regional channels such as NDTV Rajasthan and NDTV Marathi. Its digital arms, ndtv.com and ndtv.in, are among India’s top news websites.

NDTV produces and broadcasts news as well as current affairs, business, sports, health, and entertainment content, reaching audiences globally—including the UK, US, Canada, Australia, South Africa, and the SAARC region. Despite strong brand equity, 2024–25 was financially challenging: NDTV reported consolidated revenue of approximately INR 472 crore, but net losses widened sharply to INR 218 crore as the business invested in technology, modernisation, and event coverage. The group comprises subsidiaries like NDTV Convergence, NDTV Worldwide, NDTV Networks, NDTV Labs, and NDTV Media.

NDTV is celebrated for award-winning journalism and high-impact investigative reporting, remaining a trusted news source for India’s urban and youth audiences.
