Full analysisRevenue guidance
Category 3- Significant growth expected from the infrastructure sharing Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) model targeting over 30 million serviced homes in the coming years, expanding from the current 60 million addressable homes.
- Growth driven by signing on multiple MSOs (Multi-System Operators), exemplified by Siti Networks with 8.5 million customers and another MSO with 800,000 customers onboarding to the platform.
- Core business growth through the "100 COPE" project aimed at expanding into 100+ smaller towns and new geographies.
- Video and broadband customer base growing steadily; broadband base over 600,000 with potential to reduce the gap with video customers (over 5 million).
- Broadband ARPUs expected to rise with increasing demand for unlimited plans and higher speeds, especially as fiber-to-the-home penetration is currently low.
- Focused on increasing service base, expanding market presence, improving ARPUs, and leveraging digital services for sustained revenue growth.

Fundraise plans
Yes- The company is undertaking a rights issue of roughly Rs. 300 crores to reduce debt and improve capital structure.
- The rights issue will lower the debt-equity ratio from 3.8 to around 1.18, significantly strengthening fundamentals.
- Proceeds from the rights issue will be primarily used to repay around Rs. 66 crores of debt this year and rationalize overall debt.
- A previous step was the sale of Hinduja Leyland Finance shares in October 2020, generating about Rs. 100 crores used entirely to repay debt.
- The company plans to monetize non-core real estate assets valued at around Rs. 250 crores to raise an estimated Rs. 200-250 crores, further reducing debt to potentially sub-1 debt-equity.
- The goal is to become debt-free or maintain very low debt, providing a strong base for future growth.
- Rights issue and asset sales are coordinated and part of a consistent plan to strengthen the balance sheet.

Capex plans
Yes- No significant current capital expenditure is required for the Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) model as the infrastructure and satellite assets are already in place; new customers add directly to bottom-line revenue without incremental capex.
- The focus is on "sweating" existing assets rather than new capex for expansion.
- The company plans to expand into 100+ new smaller markets via a 100 COPE plan, using owned and operated points of presence, with minimal investment since backend infrastructure is existing.
- Future strategic investments include roll-out of a hybrid set-top box with OTT platform and expansion of broadband base.
- Plans for capital restructuring include a rights issue (~Rs.300 crores) aimed at reducing debt and rationalizing finances, rather than funding capex.
- The company intends to monetize non-core land assets worth around Rs.250 crores to further reduce debt.
- Enterprise business growth with single-window solutions might involve partnerships or lease models but not heavy capex.
