Zee board has approved an additional investment of Rs 15 crore in Ideabaaz Tech Private Limited (ITPL)
Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited (ZEEL) on Thursday announced that its Board of Directors has approved an additional investment of Rs 15 crore in Ideabaaz Tech Private Limited (ITPL), a company engaged in the business of media and entrepreneurship. The decision was made based on the recommendation of the Audit Committee at the board meeting held earlier today.
Following this investment, ZEEL will hold a 20% equity stake in ITPL on a fully diluted basis.

As of FY25, ITPL reported no turnover, and its paid-up equity share capital stood at Rs 1,20,060, divided into 12,006 equity shares of Rs 10 each.
