The company declared that its subscription revenue YoY was up 18 per cent, driven by pick up in subscription revenue post NTO 3.0 & ZEE5.

ZEEL saw programming and technology cost increase YoY due to higher content costs in movies, including theatrical releases, and investment in the over-the-top OTT platform ZEE5. ZEE5’s revenue in the quarter grew 21 per cent to Rs 194 crore.
