Zee Entertainment has announced a board meeting to discuss the financial results for the quarter and half-year.

Zee’s FY’25 showed steady margin improvements despite an 11% ad revenue decline amid weak macros and sports disruptions. Subscription revenue rose 7%, driven by digital traction and NTO 3.0. ZEE5 halved EBITDA losses to INR 550 Cr through pricing tweaks and syndication. Operating costs fell 8%, lifting EBITDA margin to 14.4%, with PAT at INR 687 Cr. Management plans to boost revenue and margins in FY’26, focusing on regional content, free-to-air re-entry, and cost control, with ZEE5 targeting breakeven over three years. Advertising recovery is expected but gradual.
