The rating of ZDEL is constrained by unavailability of assured cash flows of the issuer at redemption and dependency on the group support, refinance or alternatively liquidation of the securities to repay the term loan. The rating has been placed on credit watch with negative implications on account of the sharp fall in the share price of the underlying securities and constrained financial flexibility of one of the underlying security i.e. Reliance Capital Ltd. Performance of the pledged stock and the share coverage ratios and continued support from promoters and the ability to refinance the debt which is due in the near term will be the key rating sensitivities and BWR would continue to monitor further developments. th 1 18 ​ Feb 2019 ​ About the Company Zapak Digital Entertainment Ltd (ZDEL) was incorporated in 2006, is a part of Reliance Group belonging to Mr. Anil Ambani and Family and is engaged in Internet & Mobile Gaming and Digital Agency Business.

  • Indian Entertainment and Media Outlook 2010 2 Indian Entertainment and Media Outlook 2010 Message
    Indian entertainment and media outlook 2010 2 Indian entertainment and media outlook 2010 Message To our clients and friends both in and beyond the entertainment and media industry : Welcome to the 2010 edition of PricewaterhouseCoopers’ Indian Entertainment and Media (E&M) Outlook, covering the forecast period of 2010–2014. Our forecasts and analysis for this edition focus on eight major E&M industry segments and one emerging segment. Each segment details out the key trends observed and challenges faced apart from providing the prospects for the segment. In the industry overview section, we have highlighted the key theme observed during 2009 and what we perceive as future trends in the coming years. We have a chapter on the tax and regulatory impact on the various E&M segments and for the very first time we have included a chapter on how technology can be leveraged in the E&M industry. In 2009, the economy severely impacted the world, translating into steep declines in advertisement as well as consumer spending. India though impacted, did manage to show growth with increased consumer spending as well as innovative action on the part of the industry. Against this backdrop, across the world, except certain markets, speed of digital spending increased due to changing consumer behavior as well as technology available to deliver the same. In India, while the spend on digital media is likely to grow, it is unlikely that it will dominate in the forecast period. This is largely due to the relative unavailability as well as unaffordability of the broadband and mobile infrastructure.

Money’s invisible prisons 10. The hidden side of the oligarchs New media empires are emerging in Turkey, China, Russia and India, often with the blessing of the political authorities. Their owners exercise strict control over news and opinion, putting them in the service of their governments. 16. Oligarchs who came in from the cold During Russian capitalism’s crazy initial years, a select few were able to take advantage of privatization, including the privatization of news media. But only media empires that are completely loyal to the Kremlin have been able to survive since Vladimir Putin took over. 22. Can a politician be a regular media owner? In public life, how can you be both an actor and an objective observer at the same time? Obviously you cannot, not without conflicts of interest. Nonetheless, politicians who are also media owners are to be found eve- rywhere, even in leading western democracies such as Canada, Brazil and in Europe. And they seem to think that these conflicts of interests are not a problem. 28. The royal whim In the Arab world and India, royal families and industrial dynasties have created or acquired enormous media empires with the sole aim of magnifying their glory and prestige.
