Dish TV will announce its fourth quarter (January-March) earnings on May 26. Analysts expect a good quarter driven by high subscriber additions.
They expect a loss of Rs 4.6 crore in the quarter ended March 2015, a significant improvement compared to loss of Rs 149 crore in the same quarter last year, according to the average of estimates of analysts polled by CNBC-TV18.

Operating profit may jump 48 percent year-on-year to Rs 192 crore and margin may expand 590 basis points to 26.2 percent in the quarter gone by.
Analysts expect net subscriber additions of 3.5-4.4 lakh for Q4, driven by Cricket World Cup.
Zing Digital packs in regional markets may further aid subscriber addition. Subscription revenues are seen higher by 20-21 percent Y-o-Y.
