INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
India's media and entertainment (M&E) industry registered an overall growth of 12.6 per cent, from Rs 728
billion (US$ 11.74 billion) in 2011 to Rs 821 billion (US$ 13.24 billion) in 2012, according to a joint report by the
Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) and KPMG.
India has a population of over 1.2 billion. The sheer numbers give the M&E industry in the country a tremendous
opportunity for growth. Some time back, the thought of reaching and engaging with such a vast and diverse
population seemed improbable. However, today, the industry is armed with digital technologies, state-of-the-art
mobile devices, penetration of broadband and digital cinema, and a government that fully backs the sector.
Increasing digitisation along with higher internet usage has galvanised the sector over the last decade. The
Internet has almost become the top media for entertainment for most of the people. Some recent statistics and
developments related to the sector are discussed in the following segments.
Market Dynamics
The Indian print industry is the second largest in the world and is continuing to grow at a good rate. The segment
has enjoyed a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7 per cent in recent years. There are over 82,000
newspapers in India with a daily circulation of over 100 million copies.
The industry is projected to grow at 11.8 per cent in 2013 to reach Rs 917 billion (US$ 14.79 billion). The sector
is also expected to achieve a CAGR of 15.2 per cent to touch Rs 1661 billion (US$ 26.79 billion) by 2017.
Total advertising expenditure across media was Rs 327.4 billion (US$ 5.28 billion) in 2012, contributing to 40
per cent of M&E sector revenues.
Advertising, Online and Mobile Entertainment
Times Internet (TIL), has signed a partnership with Ziff Davis Inc., an American publisher and Internet company
that attracts 120 million in-market buyers monthly. As part of the partnership, Times Internet will have exclusive
rights to the IGN and AskMen brands – the premium gaming and men's lifestyle sites respectively– and their
content in the country. This partnership will further enhance TIL's growth as a digital community for Indian
consumers who are avid followers of games, entertainment and lifestyle.
The Indian M&E industry is expected to grow 11.8 per cent to touch Rs 91,700 crore (US$ 14.78 billion) in 2013,
according to an industry report. Even though traditional media such as television and print are still the preferred
medium, other segments such as animation, visual effects, films and music are slowly establishing themselves in
the market.
Television and newspapers remain the people's preferred choice for entertainment, accounting for over four-
fifths of the advertising revenue. However, the online media is gaining ground. Expenditure on digital media
which was about 1 per cent of the total advertising spend in 2005 touched 7 per cent in 2012.
Investments
Indian consumers can now avail International news channel France 24 as a free-to-air channel on Doordarshan's
DTH platform, DD Direct + and Dish TV, after signing new distribution agreements in the country. The company
revealed that the deal will enable it to reach nearly 38 million TV households, from the earlier 7 million.
India is the world's fastest growing market for audio visual (AV) equipment, according to an industry study by
InfoComm. The AV market in India is projected to enjoy a CAGR of 25 per cent and reach US$ 5.1 billion by 2015,
driven by expenditures in sectors such as education, infrastructure and corporate information technology. By
2015, India could become the third largest AV market in the Asia–Pacific region, according to Richard Tan,
General Manager of InfoComm's Asia subsidiary.
ICICI Venture, one of India's biggest equity firms, with assets of around US$ 2 billion, plans to invest about Rs 150
crore (US$ 24.18 million) in Adlabs Imagica, a theme park operated by Adlabs Entertainment Limited, on the
Mumbai–Pune expressway. This will be the equity firm's first investment in this field. Adlabs Imagica started in
April, 2013. It is a Rs 1,600-crore (258.09 million) theme park spread over 300 acres. It accommodates as many
as 20,000 visitors every day and aims to achieve 3 million visitors in its first year of running.
The M&E industry in South India could grow at a CAGR of 16 per cent and touch Rs 43,600 crore (US$ 7.04
billion) by 2016–17 from Rs 23,900 crore (US$ 3.85 billion) in 2012–13, as per a report by consulting firm
Deloitte and FICCI. This growth will be driven by the popularity of vernacular content and the efforts by media
vehicles to expand their presence. The South Indian M&E market is led by television (56 per cent), followed by
print (28 per cent) and films (11 per cent). Segments such as new media and radio are also expected to grow at a
better rate than the media average.
The online portal for the Bharat Nirman Campaign has been launched. The portal offers an interactive digital
platform for the creative campaign on several schemes and programmes. The portal allows the user to get
information about the schemes at a single place, apart from providing live integration with social media
platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.
Government Initiatives
The Indian government's push towards digitalisation and cable television by 2014, is expected to drive DTH and
digital cable growth. Also, sophisticated digital production and postproduction complemented by the willingness
of big corporate houses to invest in the film value chain is influencing the film segment in India. This is further
aided by the development of digital distribution and exhibition through the growth of multiplexes.
As part of ‘Friendly Exchanges' between the two Asian giants, India and China will mutually promote high level
media co-operation. There will be specific projects and proposals under the media domain to mark the
commemoration of ‘Friendly Exchanges' celebrations. India and China have strong M&E sectors. Sharing
experiences can only benefit both economies.
On a similar note, India and Senegal have enhanced their commitment to promote sustained cultural exchanges
by signing ‘Executive Programme for Cultural Cooperation' for the period 2013–15.
Road Ahead
The increase in mobile and wireless connections continues to push internet penetration in India. Customers now
have better access, cheaper and smarter devices and they (especially the youth) are consuming more content.
Also, in a reflection of India's growing influence, domestic television channels are increasing their networks
internationally. Channels such as Colors, Star Plus, SET and Zee TV are available in approximately 50, 70, 77 and
169 countries respectively. In the previous financial year, the growth of the overall print industry was largely due
to the Hindi and the vernacular print markets.
The Hindi print market grew from Rs 62 billion (US$ 1.00 billion) in 2011 to Rs 68 billion (US$ 1.09 billion) in
2012; the vernacular print medium witnessed a growth from Rs 63 billion (US$ 1.01 billion) in 2011 to Rs 69
billion (US$ 1.11 billion) in 2012.
