Top 10 Best Media Companies in India in 2022

Top 10 media companies in India in 2022

Whether it’s because of an increase in the number of mobile phones and television sets, increased multiplex penetration, or smaller cities obtaining their radio stations, content availability increases across all platforms. It is anticipated to improve more in the future.

However, India’s per capita entertainment consumption remains lower than that of most of its contemporaries, indicating tremendous space for continued expansion, fueled by increased disposable incomes and more access to content.

Television will maintain its position as the default entertainment channel for Indian consumers in 2020, with improved reach and interaction with the audience. The growing availability of inexpensive data and content on digital platforms aided the growth of online video viewing.

Print media grew as well but at a far slower pace. The film industry surpassed the previous box-office records thanks to tremendous success in both domestic and international markets. Radio is spreading into new cities and diversifying into new commercial goods like concerts and activations. The expansion of live events was fueled by premium properties, athletic events, and digital integration.

 

Here is a list of India’s top ten media businesses in 2022:
