A Myanmar LIR With Two Dark Autonomous Systems: What the NEXGENET Registry Record Actually Shows

China Tower's 1H2026 profit grew on depreciation, not on operations

China Tower reported a 30.1% rise in attributable profit and a 44.3% higher interim dividend for the first half of 2026 while revenue, EBITDA and operating cash flow all fell. The bridge between those two directions is a smaller non-cash charge, and the cash statement does not…

Indus Towers: Control Is Settled, the Cash Is Not

Vodafone Group is out, Bharti Airtel holds about 51%, and shareholders have approved a Rs 14 dividend. But the economics of India's listed tower operator still run through a credit-stressed tenant's payment behaviour, and the accounts show where the mechanism can break.

Airtel's FY26: record operating cash flow, a 34% cut in net debt, and a mobile core that barely grew

Bharti Airtel's financial year to March 2026 reads less as a growth story than as a balance-sheet one. Consolidated revenue reached Rs 210,973 crore, up 22.0% year on year, and EBITDA Rs 121,268 crore at a 57.5% margin, 300 basis points higher ([Q4 FY26 press…

A wide dusk view over a dense Indian metropolis from a high vantage point: near rooftops in deep shadow, midground concrete apartment blocks and mid-rise towers softening into warm haze, and a broad sky graded from amber at the horizon to deep blue above; scattered lit windows, small rooftop water tanks and two or three faint distant masts appear only as tiny unreadable silhouettes.

Vodafone Idea: The Orders Are Placed; the Towers Are Not Yet Standing

India's third-largest mobile operator has spent two years converting a payment calendar into time. The June 2026 quarter shows what the borrowed time has bought so far: ₹9,000 crore of equipment ordered, ₹1,930 crore of capital deployed, and a ₹35,000 crore bank facility still…

Vodafone Idea: The Bill Was Rewritten; the Bank's Signature Has Not Arrived

The Indian state has rescheduled most of what Vodafone Idea owes it to the 2030s and written the rest down. The Rs 35,000 crore bank facility meant to pay for the network is still a sanction in prospect, not money in the account. The operating numbers have only just stopped…

Axiata grew more valuable by owning less of what earns

Axiata Group Berhad reports its best leverage in years and a doubled dividend, but the two operators that now supply most of its upstream cash are one-third stakes shared with a co-controlling partner, and its 2023 Nepal exit still lacked host-regulator recognition in 2026.

Vodafone Idea's Binding Constraint Is a Creditor That Is Also Its Largest Shareholder

The Indian state owns 48.99% of Vodafone Idea and is, at the same time, the company's largest creditor. With bank borrowings down to Rs 211 crore, the network the operator can actually build now depends on whether operating cash flow can carry an announced Rs 45,000 crore…

Vodafone Idea: A Rescue Booked in Obligations, and a Spectrum Bill That Has Already Restarted

India's largest shareholder in Vodafone Idea holds that stake because the company owed the Indian state money. In April 2025 the Government of India converted about ₹36,950 crore of Vodafone Idea's outstanding spectrum payment dues into equity at a face value of ₹10 a share, with…

Equinix’s CN1 plan changed from 850 to 800 first-phase cabinets

The Chennai facility’s 2025 opening disclosure carried a higher investment figure and lower cabinet totals than its 2024 plan. Those changes are measurable; the amount ready for a customer to use is a different question.

Optus's 2023 outage: separating penalties from proof of repair

The emergency-call enforcement case shows why restoring connectivity, accounting for affected callers and paying a penalty require different evidence. The 2024 announcements establish historical findings, not a verdict on present compliance.
