- Hinduja Group’s media and broadband verticals bag top accolades at one of the industry’s most prestigious award platforms
- Hinduja Global Solutions’ content distribution platform NXTDIGITAL wins the ‘Most Innovative Technology Provider’ whilst the broadband vertical ONEOTT iNTERTAINMENT Ltd. was named ‘Best ISP Delivering in Rural India’
Hinduja Global Solutions’ (HGS) media and broadband verticals, NXTDIGITAL and ONEOTT iNTERTAINMENT LTD. (OIL), were recognised with top honours at the 11th BCS Ratna Awards 2025 – one of the most prestigious forums for the media & entertainment platforms in the country.
HGS’ digital content distribution platform NXTDIGITAL bagged the ‘Most Innovative Technology Provider’ award, reflecting its technology innovation in being a truly integrated platform – seamlessly bringing together digital TV via India’s only Headend-in-the-Sky (HITS) platform, broadband and OTT. At the heart of this achievement is the NXTHUB model, which has revolutionised last-mile delivery, accelerating rollouts across Tier 2, Tier 3, and rural markets, and expanding satellite-based digital connectivity to over 4,500 PIN codes.
Meanwhile, ONE Broadband, among India’s top ISPs, was awarded ‘Best ISP Delivering in Rural India’—a recognition of its deep commitment to underserved regions. Through a robust combination of traditional cable operator or last-mile owner networks and its Strategic Alliance Partner (SAP) model, OIL through its brand “ONE” has aggregated and empowered partners to deliver high-speed broadband, OTT-ready services, and AI-enabled customer support to homes and businesses well beyond urban boundaries.
Vynsley Fernandes, Whole-Time Director at HGS and CEO of the NXTDIGITAL media businesses, said, “To be recognised for innovation and contribution to digital inclusion is an honour, and a responsibility. These awards reinforce our commitment to building platforms that simplify access, scale with ease, and serve multiple needs from a single ecosystem. It reflects the vision of our teams at NXT Media Group to solve real challenges through technology that works on the ground.”
These recognitions come at a time when the media group continues to strengthen its presence across the digital ecosystem, investing in new technologies, scalable models, and customer-first strategies across urban and rural markets alike.
