India. By 2003 international channels such as Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network,
VH1, Disney and Toon Disney came into foray.
The most recent channels that have come up are UTV Movies, UTV Bindass,
Zoom, Colours, 9X and 9XM. Colors - a partnership between US media giant
Viacom and Indian media conglomerate Network18 Group - has been continually
challenging the leading incumbents in this genre. Its rise has been attributed toColors use ofdifferentiated and disruptive programming and extensive
marketing, promotional and distrbution activities. Some of its key launch shows
Fear Factor - Khatron Ke Khiladi, and Jai Shree Krishna were the highest rated
shows in its launch weeks. Initially the channel was launched as free-to-air but
after its successful shows including Balika Vadhu, the channel converted itself
into a pay-channel with effect from April 2009. The number of television channels
in India has boomed in recent years, As per press reports, there are in excess of
150 applications to launch new channels awaiting permission from the Ministry of

CURRENT STATUS OF TV IN INDIA:
As per the TAM Annual Universe Update - 2010, India now has over 134 millionhouseholds with television sets, of which over 103 million have access to CableTV or Satellite TV, including 20 million households that are DTH subscribers.
TV owning households have been growing at between 8-10%, while growth in
Satellite/Cable homes exceeded 15% and DTH subscribers grew 28% over
2009. There have been some major changes in the past year or two and the
change that are coming in are more rapid. This will create opportunity for some
people and anxiety for others. TV remains important, in India between 2 to 4
hours of TV is consumed a day, whereas in the US, nearly 5 hours of TV is
consumed a day, and these figures have been constant for the past 20 years.
More than $130 billion is spent on TV advertisement. Advertisement is growing
across the world and in India it is more rapid as compared to any other country.
We live comfortably in mostly linear TV. What is changing is time shift TV,
personalized TV and On demand TV. The business is changing and it is going
to change even rapidly in the coming years. This is because of new technology
and the control of getting what one wants, with the consumer. For example, Sony
has come out with a DVR which can record programs 24 hours a day and 7 days
a week. All this technology is not the future but is here today. This also means
that the consumer is the boss and people want technology.. Television content
segment has maintained a steady and healthy growth rate of 16.5% from 2004-
08. Its share in the television industry too has not changed materially and stands
at 4% in 2008. In 2008, it stands at an estimated Rs. 10.1 billion in 2007, which isup from Rs. 9.4 billion in 2007. Growth achieved by the television content
industry is on account of significant increase in the number of television channels
in India. In addition, this growth has necessitated the requirement for
differentiation and hence higher emphasis is being placed on the quality of
television content being produced.
INTERACTIVE TV:
It is a convergence technology that will convert the one-way passive TV viewinginto a two-way interactive experience. The technology would enable television
viewers accessing remote servers and the internet through their television and
the digital set top device. To begin with, you can watch programmes of your
choice at any given time. You can watch more than one programme
simultaneously; or watch one and record another. Viewers will not be restricted to
watching movies being screened by the channel they happen to be watching but

can choose the one they wish to see. They can select from a menu on the screen
and access a list of movies from which they can choose the one they wish to see.
While you are still watching television, in the new order you can also have video
on-demand, electronic programming guides, customised local information like
news and weather, video recording, t-commerce and internet access.
What's more television will move out from the box to fit snugly into your mobile
phones pretty shortly. Whether you are struck in a traffic jam or delayed in a
meeting you need not miss your favourite programme. From your mobile you can
dial a number and request a 1-minute download (mobisode) of a 24-minute
episode.
Incredible as it may sound, interactive TV does not use technology that willrequire you to change your television set. All that is required is a digital set topbox and a compatible remote. Experts say, it would be quite affordable to thecommon man.

Key developments in the Indian Radio Industry in 2008
Mergers and acquisitions allowed in private FM radio business.During 2008, the Government made regulatory changes aimed at promoting thegrowth of the radio sector and increasing its financial flexibility. The changes
involved allows FM radio broadcasting companies to create subsidiaries, enterinto mergers or de-mergers and amalgamation of companies by way of transferof shares, without any change in ownership of the company and without any priorpermission of the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting.
BCCL acquires Virgin Radio UK for Rs. 448 crore.Radio sectors first out-bound investment took place in2008 with BennettColeman and Company Ltd. (BCCL) acquiring Virgin Radio Holdings from UK-based SMG Plc for a consideration of $106 million (Rs. 448 crore). Virgin Radiois a music station, which operates under a FM licence in London and an AMlicence in the rest of the UK. They will invest 15 million in developing and re-
launching the brand over the next few months.
Indian radio goes international.Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (R-ADAG) has launched a 24-hour FMradio station in Singapore that will broadcast Indian film music, news and otherentertainment trivia in a collaborative venture with local station Media Corp.Radio. The station is called Big Bollywood 96.3 FM. This is the first time anIndian FM station is going offshore. The channel will play celebrity interviews,songs and gossip.
Phase III FM expansion.
The Phase II of FM licensing has been both exciting and challenging for the radioindustry. The Phase II expansion saw the Government issuing 245 licenses, andit is believed the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting is likely to roll out inexcess of 600 licenses (in over 250 additional towns) in Phase III. The industry isalso hopeful of TRAI recommendations being given the go-ahead. Some of theseinclude allowing sports and current affairs news, increase in FDI from 20% to26% i.e. same as print and allowing multiple frequencies in radio per city. On thematter of allowing news on radio, TRAI in its recommendations has suggestedthat radio broadcasters should be allowed to broadcast news provided that theyuse content only from All India Radio, Doordarshan, authorized television newschannels, United News of India, Press Trust of India and any other authorized
news agency. There is also a debate that if the FM radio industry is not allowedto broadcast news in the air waves, the same should not be allowed on Satelliteradio as well. Presently, there seems to be an anomaly that Satellite radio, withan allowance of 100% FDI, is allowed to broadcast news whereas FM radio, withan allowance of 20% FDI, is not allowed to broadcast news.
