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

During the year under review, the Company continued to demonstrate resilience in its broadband business, driven by its strategic focus on technological advancement, digital transformation and customer-centric innovation.

Through the deployment of cutting-edge Fiber-to-the-Home ("FTTH") technology and the seamless integration of digitization and automation processes, we have significantly enhanced the customer experience, which has resulted in growth of the FTTH subscriber base by 19,000.

ii. Unlimited Data Plans & Usage Trends continues to Oneof ourkey differentiators be the provision of unlimited data across all broadband plans. This ensures our customers can confidently engage in data-intensive activities without concerns about throttling or unexpected charges.

In line with this, average monthly data usage per

FTTH customer reached 357 GB, reflecting strong network engagement, particularly in the Southern market. A 3% year-on-year increase in data usage as of March, 2025 further highlights growing customer reliance and satisfaction with our services.

The Company introduced dual-band ONUs with built-in Wi-Fi band steering, a first in the industry. This innovation ensures customer devices connect automatically to the optimal frequency band, resulting in improved speed, stability and seamless connectivity without the need for manual intervention.

Our proactive approach to network upgrades has led to a 28% reduction in network- related complaints between March, 2024 and March, 2025. This achievement underscores our commitment to service quality and network reliability.

Furthermore, we have excelled in customer issue resolution, with 87% of non-network related issues resolved within one hour, reaffirming dedication to customer satisfaction and operational responsiveness.

Customer-centricity remains at the heart of our business strategy. We are proud to report a

96% Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) score in interactions involving support and issue resolution highlighting the Company's consistent delivery of quality service and customer care.

We have undertaken several key digital initiatives aimed at enhancing user experience and internal

A 24/7 intelligent chatbot integrated with WhatsApp has handled 39,046 queries over seven months, achieving an 89% first-time resolution rate, improving customer self-service capabilities.

Deployment of AI-enabled internal BOTs has empowered business teams to handle customer issues with real-time data support. Over 22,135 issues were resolved using this system in Q2 FY25 alone.

• Self-Scheduled Installations

We introduced a customer-selected time slot model for new installations, enhancing convenience and improving operational efficiency. This has led to a 72% same-day activation rate, positioning the Company among the fastest in the industry for new connection installations.

Over the past year, the Indian cable television sector has undergone substantial regulatory and structural transformation, reshaping its operational and competitive landscape. Subscriber numbers continued to decline, highlighting mounting pressure on the traditional distribution ecosystem.

On the legislative front, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting ("MIB") released the draft Broadcasting Services (Regulation) Bill, 2023 for public consultation. Concurrently, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India ("TRAI") issued recommendations on Inputs for the Formulation of the National Broadcasting Policy, signalling a move towards a more unified and forward-looking regulatory framework.

Amid ongoing regulatory asymmetry, TRAI made several critical recommendations, including:

• Regulatory Framework for Ground-Based

Broadcasters: Advocating for the inclusion of terrestrial technologies in content distribution;

• Upgradation of DD Free Dish to an Addressable

System: Aiming to enhance service quality and curb unauthorized retransmissions;

• Framework for Free Ad-Supported Streaming

Television (FAST) Services: Proposing regulatory oversight over FAST platforms currently operating without formal guidelines.

In July 2024, TRAI further notified NTO 4.0, amending Tariff Orders, Interconnect Regulations, and Quality of Service norms. While some changes intensified imbalances resulting in higher consumer costs and contributing to continued subscriber erosion, one notable positive change was the prohibition of pay channels being distributed as Free-to-Air ("FTA") on DD Free Dish. This provision is expected to foster a more level playing field among distribution platforms

These developments underscore an institutional recognition of the structural headwinds confronting the sector. Nonetheless, enduring challenges such as subscriber attrition, unsustainable economics and regulatory disparities between traditional and digital platforms necessitate urgent, comprehensive policy reforms. The industry remains committed to championing fair competition, safeguarding consumer interests and ensuring the long-term viability of last-mile cable infrastructure.

Despite the formidable challenges faced by the sector, Hathway Digital demonstrated resilience by maintaining its market position and subscriber base, even as many Multi-System Operators ("MSOs") lost ground to emerging technologies such as Over-the-Top ("OTT") platforms and free, ad-supported streaming services.

Hathway Digital remains steadfast in its commitment to providing a superior television viewing experience through the deployment of world-class equipment and cutting-edge infrastructure. Hathway Digital continues to prioritize service quality and customer satisfaction to minimize any potential disruption to its consumers.

During the year, Hathway Digital implemented several key initiatives aimed at enhancing customer satisfaction:

• Upgraded Network Infrastructure: Strengthened the digital head-end and distribution systems to support increased bandwidth and enhanced picture quality.

• Expanded HD Channel Portfolio: Added new channels across multiplehigh-definition genres to cater to evolving viewer preferences.

• Enhanced Customer Support: Improved customer service operations through faster response time, multilingual support and 24/7 helpline access.

• Self-Care App & Portal Enhancements: Upgraded digital platforms to provide customers with greater control over their subscriptions, recharges and channel selection.

• Deployment of On-Ground Service Teams:

Rolled out dedicated regional service teams to acceleratepricingissue resolution and ensure seamless activation of services.
