India joint venture (Star India / JioStar, with Reliance Industries Limited) files nothing with the SEC, so none of this comes from a filer record. The description was written for this site in August 2026 from Reliance and Disney announce completion of transaction to form joint venture (JioStar newsroom), Reliance and Disney announce strategic joint venture to bring together the most compelling and engaging entertainment brands in India (The Walt Disney Company) and Reliance-Disney JV launches JioHotstar (Outlook Business). The ownership figures below come from the holders' filings instead, and are sourced row by row.
The disclosed stakes
One row per position. Where a holder reports the same company in two share classes, both rows are shown rather than summed, because the class is part of a position's identity.
Where each figure comes from
A private stake has no ownership form behind it, so the source is always the holder's own filing or disclosure. Anything modelled says so, with the arithmetic.
- The Walt Disney Company. On 14 November 2024 Disney and Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) formed a joint venture combining Disney's Star-branded and other India general entertainment/sports channels and Disney+ Hotstar with RIL's media and entertainment businesses. Disney holds a 37 percent interest and equity-accounts for its share in 'Equity in the income of investees'. No standalone carrying value is disclosed; it sits inside the same combined 'Investments, equity basis' balance ($6,319 million at 27 Sept 2025) as A+E and other equity-method investees, so value_usd is left null rather than allocated from that total. source
What this page is not
It is not a complete register. It lists the holders who happen to be inside the researched set and disclosed the stake themselves. A private company can have many other shareholders, and nothing here rules them out: venture investors, founders and employees usually appear in no public filing at all. Percentages are of India joint venture (Star India / JioStar, with Reliance Industries Limited) where a holder stated one, and are missing where no holder did.
