CNBC-TV18 cements its leadership; announces 50% hike in advertising rates

CNBC-TV18 has been ‘India’s No. 1 English Business News Channel’ for the last 22 years, and it has now taken its legacy and dominance even further by completely demolishing the competition, ET NOW, with a whopping 80%+* market share.

While holding an absolute edge in the industry with its comprehensive reportage and cutting-edge analysis of domestic and global business, finance, economy, entrepreneurship and policy news, over the last two years, the channel has also greatly diversified its portfolio of content offerings with a focus on specialized subjects such as, Sustainability and ESG, Mental Health, CSR, Employee well-being, etc. The channel’s premier leadership IP - the India Business Leaders Awards - more popularly known as IBLA, has become synonymous with being the most definitive awards in the corporate leadership space.
