GTPL Hathway awards Dickenson for Integrated Capital Market Communications (IR & FPR Services)

MUMBAI, 26th August, 2017:  GTPL Hathway Limited (GTPL) has signed up Dickenson for an integrated financial communication mandate comprising Investor Relations Advisory (IR) and Financial PR (FPR). The end-to-end IR mandate of the Company encompasses several deliverables including market positioning and collateral preparation; Institutional & HNI access; and IR analytics and perception feedback review. The FPR engagement involves media centric communication advisory, story development and dissemination. 

“More and more, corporates are seeing the value of these two distinct and critical services coming out of under one roof – a clear differentiator in Dickenson’s favour,” explained Manoj Saha – Managing Director.

Dickenson will work closely with GTPL Hathway to improve the general awareness of the company’s vision and assist in articulating its investment case to institutional and retail investors. According to Manoj Saha, Dickenson Seagull IR’s Managing Director, GTPL Hathway has a strong investment case given India’s digitisation drive. “GTPL Hathway is India’s leading cable TV and broadband distribution company with 8 million households in over 169 cities across 10 states. In Cable TV market, GTPL is already the largest MSO in Gujarat; the second largest player Kolkata with a 67% marketshare; and a leading player in Howrah with a 24% market share. The company stands to benefit from the Phase III and IV digitisation plans, which will transform Cable TV viewing for the entire country. GTPL has established homepass all over Gujarat to further augment their broadband business. Monetisation from the Phase III and IV cable digitisation, and the conversion of homepass to active broadband users, will drive GTPL valuations,” he said.
