NDTV board approves INR 400 crore rights issue for growth

New Delhi Television Limited (NDTV) announced on September 2, 2025, that its board of directors approved a capital raise of up to INR 400 crore through a rights issue. This move is aimed at bolstering NDTV's balance sheet and enhancing its financial flexibility. The additional resources will support the company's growth agenda, including expanding distribution, investing in brand-building, developing new intellectual properties, reducing debt, and other general corporate purposes.

The rights issue is expected to enable NDTV to expand its reach and deepen its impact across its news broadcasting and digital journalism operations. The company plans to use the funds to strengthen its position in the digital world, exploring new possibilities and audiences. NDTV, a division of AMG Media Networks Limited, is focused on digital-first growth through branded content, data-driven advertising, and global partnerships.

NDTV also aims to explore opportunities in regional language news and international broadcasting via NDTV World, alongside live events. Rahul Kanwal, chief executive and editor-in-chief, highlighted that this capital raise is a decisive step toward building a stronger, future-ready NDTV that reflects the aspirations of a new India.
