Dish TV India Limited has announced the appointment of three Independent Directors to its Board, following strong shareholder approval, marking a key step in reinforcing its governance structure and long-term strategy.
According to a press release, the appointments received overwhelming backing, with 99.49% of shareholders voting in favour. The development reflects investor confidence in the company’s strategic direction and its ongoing efforts to stabilise operations while driving sustainable growth.
The newly appointed Independent Directors include Arun Kumar Kapoor, Heena Naishadh Bhatt, and Ashok Anant Paranjpe. Their inclusion is expected to bring diverse expertise and strengthen the Board’s oversight, particularly as the company navigates a rapidly evolving media and entertainment landscape.
The approval also underlines continued support for Dish TV’s focus on disciplined execution and improving performance across its core and emerging business segments. The company has been working towards building a more resilient growth model, while maintaining stability in its direct-to-home (DTH) operations.
Beyond its traditional business, Dish TV is actively expanding into new verticals such as connected TV through VZY, B2B e-commerce via ShopZop, and its OTT platform Watcho. These initiatives are aimed at unlocking additional revenue streams and creating a more diversified business portfolio.
Commenting on the development, CEO and Executive Director Manoj Dobhal said the company is encouraged by the shareholders’ trust and noted that the Board is already benefiting from the collective experience of the newly appointed directors. He added that the focus remains on improving performance, driving growth, and delivering consistent long-term value.
With these appointments, Dish TV continues to align its leadership structure with its broader vision of building a stable, future-ready business while adapting to changing consumer preferences and industry dynamics.
