So Sports18 will lauch pending channel's with regional pending channel on this west indies vs india series

Still can make money off Colors branded regional channel. But it's a curse to buy TV rights nowadays. Ads are on decline than you gotta share the rights with DD. On top of that you got revised uplinking fees. It's best to stick to digital over tv rights.

Ya but it's till now only chance of getting right of indian matches
Otherwise sony and star somehow grab rights yes in digital they done well in ipl but i think instead of use regional gec channel they go far expansion of sports 18 brand channels also this will be good as dd sports in near future not want to make hd channel available Sports 18 atleast can use their channel

Kotak estimates that Jio Cinema garnered digital advertising revenues of Rs 1,600 crore in the recently concluded IPL 2023, up 75 percent compared to Hotstar in 2022. Meanwhile, Disney Star ad revenue is likely to decline by 40 percent year on year to Rs 2,000 crore. According to the Kotak report, IPO ad revenues including television and digital will decline by around 15 percent to Rs 3,600 crore from Rs 4,200 crore primarily due to a sharp decline in ad spends from new age companies.

Kotak report says that the sharp cut in ad spend by new-age companies has impacted Star and Jio’s monetisation efforts. As per its back-of-the-envelope calculation, Star/Jio would likely incur an EBITDA loss of Rs 1,800-2,000/3,000-3,300 crore.

Viewers and advertisers shift to digital in IPL 2023

The sharp increase in viewership numbers of JioCinema will accelerate the transition of ad revenues from television to digital platforms, said analysts.

I don't think either Star and Viacom will even break even from IPL rights. They need to very careful when it comes to bilateral rights.

Anyway IPL 2023 subscription Revenue of Digital Streaming Rights holder bigger than Broadcast Rights holder.

 

[The Lonelier Island]

Digital rights holder is a start-up meant to lose money over the years. They will profit in the future.
