As of 13 December 2025, the key “merger / consolidation” developments around Hathway are:

1. Recent amalgamation within Hathway group (2025)

- Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd has amalgamated five step‑down wholly owned subsidiaries —

Hathway Kokan Crystal Cable Network Pvt Ltd, Hathway Bhaskar CCN Multi Entertainment Pvt Ltd, Hathway Cable MCN Nanded Pvt Ltd, Channels India Network Ltd and Elite Cable Network Pvt Ltd — into Hathway Digital Ltd (HDL).

- HDL is itself a wholly owned subsidiary of Hathway Cable & Datacom.

- The amalgamation is effective from 22 April 2025, as per company disclosures and media reports. (telecom.economictimes.indiatimes.com)

- This is an internal restructuring to consolidate the cable TV operations under HDL; it does not change shareholding of Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd itself.

2. Subsidiary restructuring in 2024–2025

Apart from the above amalgamation, Hathway has been simplifying its structure via smaller transactions: (business-standard.com)

- Nov 2024: Hathway Cable & Datacom acquired the remaining 61.15% stake in Hathway Cable MCN Nanded Pvt Ltd, making it a wholly owned subsidiary (later part of the group transferred to HDL).

- Dec 2024: The company sold 100% of Hathway Nanded, 80% of Elite Cable Network, and 95.63% of Channels India Network to Hathway Digital Ltd, making them wholly owned subsidiaries of HDL.

- Sep 2024: Hathway Prime Cable & Datacom Ltd ceased to be a subsidiary after Hathway sold its entire 51% stake.

- Mar 2025: Hathway sold its entire 49% investment in Hathway Patiala Cable Pvt Ltd, fully exiting that entity.

All of these are intra‑group consolidation / exits from smaller JVs, not a large external merger of Hathway Cable & Datacom itself.

3. Historical strategic transaction (for context)

- In October 2018, Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) announced acquisition of majority stakes in Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd and Den Networks Ltd, aimed at strengthening Jio’s broadband and cable footprint. (timesofindia.indiatimes.com)

- That deal is historical and already reflected in present shareholding; there is no new RIL–Hathway merger announcement in 2025.

4. Related GTPL Hathway development (group associate)

If you are referring to GTPL Hathway Ltd (an associate company in the broader Hathway ecosystem), the main recent “merger‑type” step is: (htsyndication.com)

- 5 August 2025: GTPL Hathway completed acquisition of the remaining 49% stake in GTPL Vision Services Pvt Ltd, making it a wholly owned subsidiary.

- This again is a subsidiary stake acquisition, not a merger of GTPL Hathway itself with another listed company.

5. Impact for shareholders (general, informational)

- The 2024–2025 steps are largely internal restructurings and subsidiary consolidations.

- In such cases, there is typically no separate entitlement (like swap ratio) for public shareholders of Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd, because the transactions are happening within the group or with small unlisted entities.

- The primary effects tend to be on operational efficiency, accounting consolidation, and possibly margins/tax efficiency over time, rather than an immediate one‑time benefit similar to a listed‑company merger.

There is no public announcement at this time of a fresh merger of Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd with any other listed company beyond the internal amalgamations and stake changes mentioned above (based on disclosures available up to 13 December 2025).
