1. At a Glance
A radio stock that’s playing the same sad song for 5 years straight. Music Broadcast Ltd — once the pioneer of private FM — is now basically a walkie-talkie in an iPhone world. Q1 FY26 net loss? ₹2.17 Cr. Q1 FY25 net loss? ₹2.58 Cr. Steady, if you’re a masochist.
2. Introduction with Hook
Imagine owning a Walkman in 2025, hoping the cassette industry makes a comeback. That’s Music Broadcast for you. The stock’s down 40% YoY. They play Radio Ga Ga, but it’s mostly just Ga Ga.
Operating Loss in FY25: ₹22 Cr
Market cap: ₹311 Cr — barely above the average Indian wedding budget
3. Business Model (WTF Do They Even Do?)
Basically, they play music and ads on FM radio in 39 cities, hoping people aren’t too busy with Spotify.
B2B revenue model — 95% from ad sales
Also runs 17 online radio streams (because… Gen Z?)
Brand: Radio City
Part of the Jagran Prakashan Group
In other words: They sell radio spots while the world skips ads on YouTube Premium.
4. Financials Overview
This is where things go from sad violin to broken sitar.
