"Based on the current state of preparation, we expect completion within the next few months," Sony said in a statement, without elaborating further.The merger to create a $10 billion media and entertainment powerhouse, which was announced in 2021, won a key approval in August. It was delayed due to issues including a legal battle with lenders over loan defaults by a Zee group entity.

The combination also ran into problems after the Securities and Exchange Board of India banned Zee's CEO, Punit Goenka, who had been lined up to run the merged entity, from the boardrooms of listed companies for a year. Earlier this month, Zee was served with a fresh setback after lender Axis Finance approached an appellate tribunal to challenge the approval the merger received in August.

Zee shares, which have lost about a quarter of their value since the merger was announced in 2021, were up 2.7% on Friday.
