NDTV Q2 FY27 Results: Key Date for October 2026

Board meeting scheduled for October 26

New Delhi Television Ltd. (NDTV) has informed the BSE that its board of directors is scheduled to meet on October 26, 2026. The board will consider and approve the company’s unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results for the quarter and half year ended September 30, 2026. The meeting date places the company’s Q2 FY27 earnings announcement in focus for investors tracking the listed media company. The September quarter covers the period from July 1 to September 30, 2026. NDTV had previously reported its Q1 FY27 results on July 21, 2026.

What the Q2 FY27 filing will cover

The scheduled board meeting relates to the September 2026 quarter as well as the first half of FY27. NDTV is expected to place both standalone and consolidated financial statements before the board. The filing will show revenue, expenses, operating performance, profit or loss, and disclosures contained in the notes to accounts. No Q2 FY27 revenue or profit estimate is available in the provided information. As a result, the October 26 announcement will be the first confirmed source for the quarter’s reported financial performance.

Q1 revenue fell sequentially

NDTV reported net sales turnover of ₹117.23 crore for the June 2026 quarter, or Q1 FY27. This was lower than ₹147.96 crore in the March 2026 quarter and ₹150.41 crore in the December 2025 quarter. However, it was above the ₹107.65 crore reported in the June 2025 quarter. The supplied earnings data also records revenue of ₹117 crore, down 20.77% quarter on quarter and up 8.90% year on year. The small difference reflects rounding between the summary data and the detailed quarterly table.

Losses remained substantial in the June quarter

The detailed quarterly statement showed a loss for the year of ₹81.60 crore for the June 2026 quarter, compared with a loss of ₹97.81 crore in March 2026. The company-news update separately described Q1 FY27 consolidated net loss as ₹81.88 crore, against ₹98.57 crore in the previous quarter. Both figures indicate a sequential narrowing of the loss, though the company remained loss-making. The June-quarter loss was also above the ₹70.37 crore loss reported in the June 2025 quarter. The supplied earnings summary rounds net profit to a negative ₹81 crore.

Expenses exceeded total income

NDTV’s total income in Q1 FY27 stood at ₹119.96 crore, including ₹2.73 crore of other income. Total expenses were ₹184.97 crore, exceeding total income by ₹65.01 crore. EBITDA was negative ₹65.01 crore, compared with negative ₹81.97 crore in the preceding March quarter. Operating profit was negative ₹67.74 crore and EBIT was negative ₹74.90 crore. Interest expense stood at ₹6.70 crore, while depreciation was ₹9.89 crore. These figures provide the financial context for the September-quarter announcement.

Recent quarterly trend

The table shows that revenue moved above ₹147 crore in the December 2025 and March 2026 quarters before declining in the June 2026 quarter. Losses persisted across each of the four reported periods. The September 2025 quarter is the comparable year-ago period for the upcoming Q2 FY27 result. That quarter recorded net sales turnover of ₹122.27 crore and a loss of ₹74.26 crore.

Comparison points for investors

The October 26 results will allow a comparison with both the June 2026 quarter and the September 2025 quarter. The immediate sequential reference is Q1 FY27 revenue of ₹117.23 crore and a loss of ₹81.60 crore. The year-on-year reference is Q2 FY26 revenue of ₹122.27 crore and a loss of ₹74.26 crore. Investors can also assess whether total expenses, EBITDA and interest costs have changed from the June-quarter levels. The half-year result will provide a broader view of NDTV’s performance across the first six months of FY27.

Full-year FY26 provides added context

The provided earnings information states that NDTV reported a loss per share of ₹36.86 for FY26, compared with a loss per share of ₹33.52 for FY25. This indicates that the full-year per-share loss increased from the preceding year. The same information also states that first-quarter FY27 loss per share was ₹7.24, against a loss per share of ₹10.92 in the first quarter of FY26. Per-share figures should be assessed alongside the company’s reported revenue, expenses and consolidated loss when the Q2 filing is released.

Why the results matter for the media company

NDTV operates in the media sector, where quarterly results are evaluated through advertising-linked revenue, operating costs and profitability. The June-quarter data showed an improvement in EBITDA and net loss compared with the March quarter, but it also showed lower revenue. The September-quarter filing will establish whether the company’s revenue level and cost structure changed during the next three months. It will also clarify the consolidated and standalone performance for the first half of FY27. No outcome should be assumed before the board-approved results are filed with the exchanges.

Next step is the board-approved disclosure

NDTV’s October 26 board meeting is the confirmed corporate event for the September-quarter results. The company has said the board will consider unaudited standalone and consolidated results for the quarter and half year ended September 30, 2026. The exchange disclosure following the meeting will provide the reported Q2 figures and the related financial notes. Until then, the June 2026 quarter remains the latest detailed financial reference available. The announced results will be compared with the June 2026 and September 2025 periods to assess the direction of revenue and losses.
