"Astronomica News" also performed well, gaining 201 new subscribers to reach a total of 8,506, while "Amar Ujala Official" experienced a smaller increase of 92 subscribers, bringing its count to 14,251. Contrastingly, several channels faced significant losses, categorizing them as the current outsiders in the landscape.

"What's Up Usa" followed with a decrease of 748 subscribers, leaving it with a total of 22,786. Additionally, "Dr Abhishek Verma ~ ShivSena (NDA)" experienced a decline of 285 subscribers, but it remains the largest channel in terms of subscribers, holding a total of 192,618.
