Executive summary
Five trends for 2007
Competition in the Pay TV market
- Competition for subscribers between cable and DTH and also amongst DTH
operators is increasing. 2007 may see the launch of two new DTH services (from
Reliance and Sun TV), bringing the total to four. The battle is largely being
fought on the basis of price and not on content.
- Major listed companies:
- Dish TV
- Hathway cable
- Sun TV
- Wire & Wireless India
Rollout of new multiplexes
- The boom in new multiplex construction is being slowed down by delays in
the construction of new shopping malls and other regulatory issues. However,
the planned build of almost 600 new screens across 44 cities (over the next 3
years) may lead to overcapacity in some areas - occupancy rates have already
fallen from 50% to approximately 35%.
- Major listed companies:
- Adlabs
- PVR
- Inox Leisure
- Shringar
Newspaper market - new launches
- The year began with the launch of HT Media' s new business daily, Mint.
This title has entered an already crowded business newspaper market. Across
the sector, double digit growth in adspend is encouraging publishers to launch
new titles and expand geographically. This is leading to very significant
price competition in major cities (especially among English language titles).
Local language titles continue to have the best growth prospects.
- Major listed companies:
- HT Media
- Jagran Prakashan
- Deccan Chronicle
Expansion in radio
- The successful licencing of over 240 new radio stations in 2006 has led to
an enormous increase in the number of stations coming on air. In 2007, the
sector is likely to see increased competition for audiences, but will also
capture a greater share of advertising budgets. There is also likely to be
some consolidation in the sector and more foreign investment.
- Major listed companies:
- Adlabs
- Entertainment Network
- Sun TV
Internet growth
- The online media sector should continue to experience strong growth in
both reach and revenues. Broadband' s share of the market will grow from its
current 20%.
