On Meta platforms, Instagram and Facebook pages for all five brands were restored within three to four days of deactivation by November 3–4. All five are also back on YouTube.

As reported earlier by BestMediaInfo.com, the deactivations were linked to licensing issues, including expired music rights that increased takedown risk for promos and archived clips. Sources maintained the pause was a precautionary compliance step while audits and renewals were completed.

JioStar has not issued a public statement on the phased return at the time of publishing.
