According to TechSci Research report, “India OTT Media Services Market – By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, the India OTT Media Services market stood at USD 1.51 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow USD 3.21 billion by 2030 with a CAGR 13.45% during forecast period. The India OTT media services market has experienced significant growth, driven by increasing smartphone penetration, affordable data plans, and a rising demand for regional content. With the expansion of 5G networks, seamless streaming and enhanced user experiences are expected to further boost the market.

The availability of diverse content, ranging from Bollywood films and web series to regional and international shows, has widened the consumer base, attracting both urban and rural viewers. Hybrid monetization models, including ad-supported (AVOD), subscription-based (SVOD), and transactional (TVOD) options, have enabled platforms to cater to different income groups, making OTT services accessible to a larger audience. Furthermore, partnerships between telecom operators and streaming platforms have played a crucial role in expanding the reach of OTT services, offering bundled packages that provide affordability and convenience.

Despite the rapid growth, the India OTT media services market faces challenges such as intense competition among domestic and international platforms, high content acquisition costs, and regulatory uncertainties. With numerous players in the industry, platforms must constantly innovate and offer exclusive content to retain subscribers. Additionally, digital piracy remains a significant issue, impacting revenue streams and discouraging investment in high-quality content. The fragmentation of consumer preferences across diverse linguistic and cultural demographics also requires OTT platforms to invest heavily in localized content, further increasing operational costs.
