Dish TV India Limited

The Bombay High Court dismissed the appeal filed by a Dish
TV promoter entity against Yes Bank, the largest shareholder in the
direct-to-home company, clearing the path for the latter to vote at the
extraordinary general meeting (EGM), to be held on June 24. A bench headed by
Justice GD Patel and Justice MJ Jamdar said World Crest Advisors, the Dish TV
promoter group entity, had not made any case in its plea against YES Bank and
was hence dismissing the appeal filed by it. The appeal by World Crest was
filed in response to an order passed by the Bombay High Court last week,
rejecting its interim application to restrain Yes Bank from voting at EGM.
