Introduction
The history of the Indian television industry dates back to 1982, the year when
India hosted the Asian Games. There was a huge demand for color televisions all
through the 80s.
In 1984-1985, the color television industry was growing at an astounding rate of
140.3%. However, in 1985-86, it fell to 68.6%, 15% in 1988-89 and finally in the
year 1989-90 it touched a rock bottom level of 5%. In 1991-92, the Indian
economy was going through a balance of payment crisis. As a result of this, for
the first time in the history of Indian color television, one saw a deceleration
in the sales of color televisions at -14.5%.

During this period, the prices of color televisions skyrocketed due to the high
import duties imposed on color picture tubes. However, the period after the
liberalisation of the Indian economy marked a new beginning for the color
television industry.

The
industry witnessed rapid growth during this period. The popularity of
cable television, the price of 20 inch color television falling
drastically, the entry of international brands, the increase in
advertising expenditure and various sporting extravaganzas like the
World Cup cricket in 1991 and football World cup in 1994 helped in
increasing the sales of color televisions.
The sales of color televisions increased from 16.8%
in 1992-93 to about 21.6% in 1993-94 to 27.9% in 1996-97 due to the
cricket World Cup in 1996. In 1999-2000, the growth rate escalated to
32.5%... |
