Vodafone Idea Receives Government Relief and Promoter Support Amid Ongoing Financial Challenges
Vodafone Idea received significant relief with government freezing ₹87,695 crore AGR dues for five years and ₹5,836 crore promoter funding from Vodafone Group. Despite 76% stock gains over one year and narrowing Q2 FY26 losses to ₹5,524 crore, the company faces substantial challenges with ₹2.02 lakh crore total debt and intense market competition. The relief measures provide breathing room but don't fully resolve structural issues, making this a high-risk investment focused on survival rather than growth.
