Sat Jan 25 11:28:36 UTC 2025: ## NDTV Reports 34% Revenue Surge, Launches Global News Platform
**NEW DELHI** – NDTV, a leading Indian media network, announced today a significant 34% increase in revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024-2025, compared to the same period last year. This growth, driven by increased advertising revenue and successful events and digital initiatives, also represents a 20% rise over the previous quarter.
The strong financial performance coincides with the launch of NDTV World, a new global news platform aimed at the Indian diaspora and international audiences. The platform’s launch was celebrated with the high-profile NDTV World Summit, attended by dignitaries including Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Bhutanese Prime Minister Dasho Tshering Tobgay, former British Prime Minister Lord David Cameron, and several other prominent global figures.
NDTV’s return to the Broadcast Audience Research Council (BARC) measurement system after a two-and-a-half-year absence further solidifies its commitment to the Indian market. The network also saw success with its extensive coverage of the Maharashtra and US elections, and signature events like the NDTV Indian of the Year awards.
While strategic investments in new initiatives impacted short-term profits, NDTV’s Executive Director and Editor in Chief, Sanjay Pugalia, expressed confidence in future growth driven by the expansion of its global presence and diversified revenue streams. The network’s commitment to quality journalism was recently recognized with a record-breaking 38 awards at the News Television Awards 2024. The impressive financial results and strategic expansion position NDTV for continued success in the evolving media landscape.
