India Sports Broadcasting Media Market Broadcasters
The key broadcasters in the Indian sports broadcasting media market are Doordarshan, Sony Pictures Networks India (SPN), Disney Star, and Viacom18.
Doordarshan: It is the Indian public service television broadcaster and a part of Prasar Bharati, India’s largest public broadcasting agency. The launch of rival free-to-air channels and the growth of direct-to-home (DTH) satellite operators in rural markets has seen Doordarshan, once the sole channel in the country, lose its monopoly position and share of viewership. Doordarshan currently operates 36 satellite channels – six national free-to-air channels, including sports channel DD Sports, and a large network of free-to-air regional channels in various languages. Doordarshan also operates DD FreeDish, a free DTH service offering over 150 television channels, and the largest DTH platform in the country.

India Sports Broadcasting Media Market Segmentation by Sectors
The key sectors in the India sports broadcasting media industry are TV services, subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) services, mobile services, and fixed broadband services.
TV services: The television household penetration rate in India is low. Over the forecast period, the television household penetration will increase to more than 76% by 2027. However, total pay-TV subscriptions will decline by 2027. The decline in pay-TV subscriptions is attributed to rural customers churning out and migrating to free TV platforms, as well as urban customers shifting usage to streaming services.
SVOD services market: SVOD subscriptions in the country will increase significantly during 2022-2027 driven by the increasing availability of affordable high-speed mobile internet, and a steady rise in household penetration of fixed broadband services, particularly high-speed fiber-to-the-home/building (FTTH/B) services, which enable the consumption of high-bandwidth over-the-top (OTT) video content.

Key Highlights
Over the forecast period, total pay-TV subscriptions will continue to decline, due to rural customers churning out and migrating to free TV platforms, as well as urban customers shifting usage to streaming services.
SVOD subscriptions in the country will increase at a CAGR of 12.5% during 2022-2027, driven by the increasing availability of affordable high-speed mobile internet, and a steady rise in household penetration of fixed broadband services
The growth in mobile subscriptions will be mainly driven by the continuous rise in smartphone subscriptions, on the back of increasing 4G network coverage across the country and increasing availability of low-cost smartphones, and increasing M2M/IoT subscriptions supported by the roll out of 5G networks in cities throughout the country.
Rising demand for high-speed internet services to support work-from-home commitments and consumption of high-bandwidth streaming video services amongst consumers will drive India’s fixed broadband service market.
