Purvangi Jain: Thank you, good afternoon, everyone and a warm welcome to you all. My name is Purvangi
Jain from Valorem Advisors. We represent the investor relations of Shemaroo Entertainment
Limited.
On behalf of the company, I would like to thank you all for participating in the Company's
Earnings Call for the 1st Quarter of the Financial Year 2027.
Before we begin, a quick cautionary statement. Some of the statements made in today's

Without any delay, I request Mr. Ashish Gupta to start with his opening remarks on the financial
highlights. Thank you and over to you, sir.
Ashish Gupta: Thank you, Purvangi and good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to our Earnings Call for the 1st
Quarter of the Financial Year 2027.
Let me first start by giving you some of the key financial highlights, after which our CEO – Mr.
Hiren Gada, will give you some operational highlights for the quarter under review.
Now, for the 1st Quarter of Financial Year 2027, revenue from operations stood at
approximately INR 132 crores, reflecting a 6% year-on-year decline. The company significantly
narrowed its EBITDA loss to around INR 2 crores compared to INR 56 crores in the
corresponding quarter last year. Net loss also materially reduced to approximately INR 8 crores.
With regards to the new initiatives, expenses in the 1st Quarter of the Financial Year 2027
amounted to around INR 20 crores. Adjusting for these investments, the EBITDA for existing
operations for the quarter would have been around INR 18 crores.
The digital media revenues for the 1st Quarter stood at approximately INR 56 crores,
registering a year-on-year decline of approximately 17%. Traditional media revenues for the
quarter were around INR 76 crores and up 5% year-on-year.
Now, I would request our CEO – Mr. Hiren Gada, to give you the operational highlights for the
period under review.
Hiren Gada: Thank you, Ashish, and good afternoon, everyone.
This quarter marks an important milestone in our transformation journey, representing the
quarter following the successful completion of the inventory charge-off initiative that we
embarked on nearly 10 quarters ago.
For the quarter under review, while revenue declined marginally, the EBITDA and PAT loss
reduced significantly. Digital revenue for the quarter declined by 17% year-on-year, as select
B2B syndication deals were deferred on account of geopolitical uncertainty, coupled with the
inherently lumpy nature of this B2B side of the business. This was partially offset by healthy
growth in our consumer business, driven by fresh content, stronger audience engagement, and
improved advertising monetization. The traditional business registered a 5% year-on-year
growth with the closure of select B2B licensing deals, which more than offset the impact of a
subdued advertising environment.
Given the ongoing BARC blackout, continuing macroeconomic pressures, and geopolitical
tensions, the overall advertising outlook for our traditional business is expected to remain
subdued in the near term.

On ShemarooMe Gujarati, the platform acquired the OHO Gujarati catalogue in April 2026,
adding over 22 Gujarati original web series. We also released 10 new titles, during the quarter
across movies, web series and plays including the original web series Kajodu, and the world
digital premiere of Jalebi Rocks.
Other prominent web series released during the quarter include Vitthal Teedi Season 1, Kadak
Meethi Season 1 and 2, and Cutting Season 1.
On YouTube, the flagship channel Shemaroo Filmi Gaane surpassed 74.7 million subscribers,
while Shemaroo Entertainment crossed the 61.9 million subscriber milestone this quarter.
Across its entire portfolio of channels, the company garnered approximately 9 billion views
during the quarter, reflecting sustained digital engagement.
On the syndication front, the company became the worldwide digital and satellite distribution
partner for Malayalam action thriller Kattlan. We are also very proud that our first AI-powered
campaign, Kindness Badhaye Goodness, received industry-wide recognition, winning the Baby
Blue Elephant at the Kyoorius Creative Awards 2026 and a bronze at the Good Ads Matter
Awards. These accolades reflect our commitment to combining creativity with technology to
build meaningful consumer engagement.
In conclusion, as you all know, it has been a tough couple of years not only for Shemaroo, but
for the overall industry. Over the last few years, Shemaroo has withstood the toughest times
the industry has ever witnessed. In fact, the company has invested heavily during this period
in its people, processes and offerings, thereby building a much agile and sustainable company
for the future.
With that, I now open the floor for question-and-answer sessions.
Moderator: Thank you very much. We will now begin the question
