Shares of Sun TV Network traded higher on Monday, November 17, gaining nearly 2% to Rs 574 after the company reported a robust second-quarter performance for the period ended 30 September 2025. The stock opened at Rs 574 and moved upward as investors reacted to the company’s improved operational metrics and revenue growth.

In Q2 FY26, Sun TV Network leaned heavily on its cricket franchises to power its financials, with expanded team contributions helping offset weak advertising trends and rising operating costs. Standalone revenue from operations rose 29.86% year-on-year to Rs 1,169 crore, supported by stronger subscription income and a solid uplift from cricket-related earnings.

The company’s profitability also improved during the quarter. EBITDA increased 45% year-on-year, while margins expanded to 60.40% compared to 57.81% in the same period last year. This margin improvement reflects disciplined cost management and higher-yielding revenue streams despite the broader slowdown in advertising spends across the sector.

On the market front, Sun TV Network’s stock is currently trading at Rs 574, up from its previous close of Rs 563.05. The company holds a market capitalisation of Rs 226.20 crore, with its one-year price range between Rs 518.05 and Rs 782.90. The stock continues to attract investor interest as the company’s sports portfolio remains a key performance driver alongside its subscription-led broadcasting business.
