We have reviewed the accompanying Statement of Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results of HT Media Limited (the "Holding Company") and its subsidiaries (the Holding Company and its subsidiaries together referred to as "the Group") for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 (the "Statement") attached herewith, being submitted by the Holding Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 and 52(4) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (the "Listing Regulations"). 2. The Holding Company's Management is responsible for the preparation of the Statement in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34, (Ind AS 34) "Interim Financial Reporting" prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 and 52(4) of the Listing Regulations. The Statement has been approved by the Holding Company's Board of Directors. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on our review. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. We also performed procedures in accordance with the Master Circular issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India under Regulation 33(8) of the Listing Regulations, to the extent applicable. The Statement includes the results of the following entities: Holding Company - HT Media Limited Subsidiaries: Hindustan Media Ventures Limited HT Music and Entertainment Company Limited Next Mediaworks Limited Next Radio Limited Mosaic Media Ventures Private Limited HT Overseas Pte. Limited HT Noida (Company) Limited HT Media Employee Welfare Trust Based on our review conducted and procedures performed as stated in paragraph 3 above and based on the consideration of the review reports of other auditors referred to in paragraph 6 below, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with recognition and measurement principles laid down in the aforesaid Indian Accounting Standards ('Ind AS') S.R. BATLIBOi a Co. LLP Chartered Accountants specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of the Listing Regulations, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement. The accompanying Statement includes the interim reviewed financial results and other financial information, in respect of one trust (HT Media Employee Welfare Trust) included in the standalone unaudited interim financial results and other financial information of the entities included in the Group, whose interim results reflect total revenues of INR Nil, total net profit after tax of INR Nil and total comprehensive income of INR Nil, for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, as considered in the respective standalone unaudited interim financial results and other financial information of the entities included in the Group. The interim financial results and other financial information in respect of such trust has been reviewed by another auditor. The accompanying Statement includes the unaudited interim financial results and other financial information, in respect of one subsidiary, whose unaudited interim financial results include total revenues of INR Nil, total net loss after tax of INR 3 lakhs and total comprehensive income of INR 1 lakh, for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, as considered in the Statement which have been reviewed by its independent auditor. The independent auditor's reports on interim financial results and other financial information of these entities have been furnished to us by the Management and our conclusion on the Statement, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures in respect of the trust and the subsidiary is based solely on the reports of such auditors and procedures performed by us as stated in paragraph 3 above. The subsidiary is located outside India whose financial results and other financial information have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in its respective country and which have been audited by other auditor under generally accepted auditing standards applicable in its respective country. The Holding Company's management has converted the financial results of such subsidiary located outside India from accounting principles generally accepted in its respective country to accounting principles generally accepted in India. We have reviewed these conversion adjustments made by the Holding Company's management. Our conclusion in so far as it relates to the balances and affairs of such subsidiary located outside India is based on the report of other auditor and the conversion adjustments prepared by the management of the Holding Company and reviewed by us. Our conclusion on the Statement in respect of matters stated in para 6 above is not modified with respect to our reliance on the work done and the reports of the other auditors. For S.R.
