Hathway Cable & Datacom has paid no dividend on the NSE since 1 April 2021, the start of the period we checked. No. Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd paid out 0% of its profit as dividends in each of its last 13 reported years, so there is no payout history to show. That comes from the filed annual statements, not an estimate. (From the NSE corporate-actions record, read 4 November 2026.) ## Which stock lists is Hathway Cable & Datacom on? Hathway Cable & Datacom is on 2 of our India lists: 52 week high & low and Penny stocks. - [52 week high & low 52-week position: Near 52-week low](https://www.sectoralpha.in/52-week-high-stocks-india) - [Penny stocks Earnings growth, 12 months (%): -32.14](https://www.sectoralpha.in/penny-stocks-india) ## Is Hathway Cable & Datacom profitable? Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd earned ₹10.0 Cr of net profit in the Sep 2026 quarter, −44.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹82.0 Cr. That is 1.8% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹18.0 Cr. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹82.0 Cr (−11.8% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +5.8% on a year earlier and the margin moved −5.0 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −18.8% and revenue +6.0%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does Hathway Cable & Datacom make, and is it growing? Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd reported ₹568 Cr of revenue in the Sep 2026 quarter, +5.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 12th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 10 years it has grown 6.6% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹2,150 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹2,216 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹2,150 Cr, +5.4% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +6.0% on average, against 6.6% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing at about the same pace as its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +6.0%, against +4.9% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew −30.6%, against −17.9% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Hathway Cable & Datacom keep? Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd's operating margin was 10.0% in the Sep 2026 quarter, 5.0 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 years it has been between 11.0% and 28.0%. The latest quarter is below every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −4.8 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +0.0 points. So the drop came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. ## Is Hathway Cable & Datacom's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 31% of Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, a gap worth watching. In FY26 it brought in ₹199 Cr of operating cash against ₹82.0 Cr of profit. After ₹145 Cr of spending on assets, ₹54.0 Cr was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why 31% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 42 days longer between FY21 and FY26, so more of each rupee of profit waits in the business before it arrives. When less than 70% of profit comes in as cash, it is the thing to watch on this page. What to look at next: less of the profit turns into cash than it should, and the cash cycle is 42 days longer. The next section looks at where the cash is stuck. ## Where does Hathway Cable & Datacom's cash go? Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 43 days in FY26, up from 1 days in FY21. It spent ₹590 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹2,150 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹5.9 Cr, so roughly ₹253 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. Spending on assets: ₹590 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹999 Cr of depreciation (the yearly wear and tear on existing assets). So it is spending about what it takes to replace what wears out, or less. Work still in progress is ₹14.0 Cr (FY26): assets paid for that are not earning yet. In short: cash is getting stuck in the daily cycle, so watch the cycle more than the profit. ## What is Hathway Cable & Datacom's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd's P/E is 23.8×, in the middle of its own history: higher than 52% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 23.8×, over 7.5 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −9.6% while the price moved −33.9%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 5 years the price moved −15.2% a year; about −20.5% a year came from earnings growth and about +5.3 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. In short: the multiple is about average against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Hathway Cable & Datacom business getting better or worse? Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd's business is getting worse. Profit and EPS growth are shrinking: profit growth is −30.6% in the latest quarter, against +89.8% at its best in 12 quarters, with ROCE steady at 2.1%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: falling lines mean any ratio below that looks low should be read with that direction in mind. ## How much does Hathway Cable & Datacom earn on its capital? Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd earned a ROCE of 3% in FY26. That is up from a low of −5% in FY16. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 10.0 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 3.8% net margin and 0.41× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 3.8% net margin × 0.41× asset turnover × 1.16× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 1.8% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 2.0% − 12.0% = −10.0 percentage points. The 12.0% is a standard assumption for the cost of capital in India, not an estimate for this company. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. ## Does Hathway Cable & Datacom have too much debt? Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd has total debt of ₹9.0 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹4,502 Cr as of Sep 2026, so its debt is 0.00× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.00 in FY23 to 0.00 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Hathway Cable & Datacom shareholding pattern? Foreign institutions cut their stake in Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd by 2.8 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Foreign institutions now own 0.3% of the company. Domestic institutions moved −0.1 points over the same period, to 0.0%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Foreign institutions: −2.8 points over 8 quarters, to 0.3%; Domestic institutions: −0.1 points over 8 quarters, to 0.0%; Promoters: +0.0 points over 8 quarters, to 75.0%. Why the owners changed: foreign institutions drove it (−2.8 points). They reduced their stake. ## How far is Hathway Cable & Datacom from balance-sheet trouble? For Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd, the Z-score is not available, so we say so rather than guess one. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections show the balance-sheet figures we do have, each with its own date. ## How does Hathway Cable & Datacom rank in its industry? 35.5 out of 100, rank 19 of 25 in Entertainment & Media, with 100% of the evidence available. Hathway Cable & Datacom Ltd scores 35.5 out of 100 against the 25 companies it is compared with in Entertainment & Media, ranking 19. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 11.3 + 10.2 + 11 + 3 = 35.5. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Hathway Cable & Datacom compared with? Hathway Cable & Datacom ranks 19 of 25 Entertainment & Media companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 35.5 out of 100. 1.

They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.
