Hathway Cable and Datacom Ltd. (HCDL) is a well-known company in India's cable TV and landline internet businesses. It is part of the Reliance Group. It works with services like OTT, ISP, and CATV. It has more than six million home passes and about one million customers who pay for internet access. Hathway has been a well-known name in India's digital business for a long time because it offers both connectivity and content distribution.
People in Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Indore, Bhopal, and Surat know about the business. It has a network of around 15,000 km of HFC and 71 analogue and 19 digital head-ends that help it execute its business. Cisco and other IT partners help keep the backbone running. It gets money from commercials by selling airtime to other stations and to its own subscribers.
Hathway began as Chics Display Services Pvt Ltd in Mumbai in 1959. In 1999, Hathway Cable & Datacom Pvt Ltd bought the company. People learnt about it in 2009. At that point, the business had already grown in a lot of ways. For example, in 2000, it became the first Indian cable company to offer broadband services. It also said that year that it sought to combine programming and distribution and made a strategic partnership with STAR.
The company got a lot bigger in the 2000s by buying other companies. Hathway bought more than 20 multi-system operators (MSOs) in 2007 and 2008. Some of these were Gujarat Telelink, Bhaskar Multilink in Madhya Pradesh, and Marathwada Cable Network in Maharashtra. These things made it more well-known all around the country. The Indian Telly Awards named the company "Best MSO" for many years in a row. It started offering DVR service to cable customers in India in 2009.
The company's first public offering (IPO) in 2010 brought in ₹666 crore, which was used to pay for growth and new technology. Hathway had spread to 38 Phase II cities by 2013, when India began using digital addressable systems (DAS). By November 2009, it had more than 1.6 million paying TV clients and 300,000 people who used the Internet. The numbers kept going higher for the next ten years.
In the middle of the 2010s, Hathway built up new IT and billing systems that let them use prepaid payment models and self-care portals. These changes made it easier to collect, hire more people, and make more things. The business became more well-known in the sector when it joined the DAS III and IV markets and when its joint venture, GTPL Hathway, became public in 2017.
The business was focusing on developing hybrid products by 2019. The Ultra Smart HUB was built on Android TV and combined traditional cable TV with TV that used apps. Reliance Jio secured most of the shares at about the same time, first through a preferential allotment and subsequently through an open offer. This gave it nearly 70% of the business. Because of this, Hathway became a part of the Reliance media and telecom network. After that, Network18 said it will merge Den Networks and TV18.
A lot of things have become better in the last several years. To keep up with changing customer expectations, the company created HEVC HD boxes, OTT hybrid devices, prepaid TV subscriptions, and new fibre possibilities,
including FiberMAX. In 2022, more fibre was added to the infrastructure, bringing the total to 3,000 km. The IT systems got Oracle BRM 12 in 2024. Changes in the law and TRAI's tariff rules have also changed how services are put together and how much they cost.
Hathway is now in the middle between old-fashioned cable and new broadband. OTT platforms and telecom-backed fibre networks are still tough competitors, but its large number of customers and connections to Reliance's content and distribution platforms give it an edge. The story of the firm shows how a cable company has changed over time to be competitive in a primarily digital society. The industry is changing as more people use digital technology, and Hathway's position will continue to be tested.
