RE: Dish TV is in the final stages of acquiring Videocon D2H
They are only going to change theme and logo that's it.
Good news would be this that DishTV is going to be very large customers enjoying very cheap in rate services. Videocon D2H itself is too expensive.

Videocon d2h to merge with Dish TV to create a TV distribution behemoth
In a major deal that is set to impact the broadcast sector, Videocon d2h is set to merge with Dish TV.
The board of directors of both the companies have approved a scheme of arrangement for the amalgamation of Videocon d2h into Dish TV and the execution of definitive agreements in relation to such amalgamation.
Following the closing of the proposed transaction, the merged entity will be renamed as Dish TV Videocon.
Dish TV Videocon shall issue 857.791 million shares as consideration for the scheme. The Videocon d2h shareholders shall be allotted 2.021 new shares of Dish TV Videocon for every one share held in Vd2h (subject to certain adjustments as set out in the Scheme), which would result in Dish TV shareholders owning 1,066.861 million existing shares or 55.4% of Dish TV Videocon, and Vd2h shareholders owning 857.791 million new shares or 44.6% of Dish TV Videocon.
Dish TV Videocon will be led by Jawahar Lal Goel as chairman and managing director, combining the strength of senior and operating management teams while offering further career growth opportunities for employees of the two merging companies. The Vd2h principals shall have the right to nominate two directors on the Dish TV Videocon Board, one of whom shall be Vice chairman and the other a deputy managing director.
The Proposed Transaction is expected to create a leading cable and satellite distribution platform in India.
Dish TV Videocon would serve 27.6 million net subscribers in India, as of September 30, 2016 on a pro forma basis, out of a total of 175 million TV households in India highlighting significant room for growth.
The combined entity would have revenue of Rs. 59,158 million and EBITDA2 of Rs. 18,262 million on a pro forma basis for the fiscal year ended 31 March 2016 positioning it as a leading media company in India.
The proposed transaction is expected to provide better synergies and growth opportunities and enable
Dish TV Videocon to provide differentiated and superior service to all customers through deeper after sales, distribution and technology capabilities, and also become a more effective partner for TV content providers in India.
Dish TV CMD Jawahar Goel said, “We are pleased to announce this combination at a time when the cable & satellite Industry in India is rapidly progressing on the path to digitization. This transaction, that brings together two powerhouse brands of the cable & satellite Industry in India, will provide us with a gateway to harness growth opportunities in an ultra-competitive multi player environment. This combine will enhance value for all stakeholders – Consumers, Government, Employees and Shareholders. Dish TV has been a pioneering and path breaking company which has taken the pain and responsibility of establishing many new processes, like the electronic & digital payments system that were the business need of the initial years and went on to become the industry norm of a dynamic and throbbing Industry. Now we take the next leap in our very exciting and exhilarating journey.”
Vd2h Executive Chairman Saurabh Dhoot said, “Since the commercial launch of Vd2h seven years ago, we have created a highly successful and high-growth DTH business with a solid foundation. We went public on the NASDAQ with a vision to take the company to the next level and emerge as a leading, innovative and highly profitable Indian media platform. Today we are very excited about this strategic combination to create a solid platform with decisive and proven leadership at the front would lead Dish TV Videocon to create value for all stakeholders, our customers, employees, and our shareholders.”
At the close of the proposed transaction, the current promoters of Dish TV shall continue as promoters of Dish TV Videocon. The Dish TV principals are also in discussion with the Vd2h principals to purchase some of the Vd2h principals’ shares in Dish TV Videocon post the amalgamation, details of which are likely to be finalized soon.
Upon closing of the proposed transaction, Dish TV Videocon shall continue to be listed on the National Stock Exchange of India and the BSE Limited in India and on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange in the form of GDRs. In the Scheme, holders of Vd2h ADRs will receive their new shares in the form of GDRs, unless they elect to receive and hold new shares directly.
The proposed transaction remains subject to approvals, including from the Securities and Exchange Board of India, the stock exchanges, shareholders and creditors of both companies, the Competition Commission of India, the High Court of Bombay and the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting. The Proposed Transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2017.
