India's screen entertainment market to touch USD 17 billion by 2029: Report
As per the report, with online video will contribute USD 8.6 billion, making it the largest revenue segment by 2029, driven by affordable data, mobile penetration, and the rise of localised digital content. New Delhi [India], May 4 (ANI): The screen entertainment market in the country is estimated to touch USD17 billion by 2029, driven by digital platforms and sustained by television and movies, according to a joint report by Media Partners Asia (MPA), IP House and Confederation of Indian Industry (CII). Television, while slightly declining, remains a close second at USD 6.8 billion, underscoring its widespread reach and cultural inertia across Indian households. Movies are set to earn USD 1.9 billion, recovering steadily through hybrid release strategies and multiplex revival, as per the report. Together, the three formats signal a shift from traditional to digital, while still coexisting in a hybrid, multi-screen future, the report added. According to the report, by 2029, one in every two dollars in India's screen economy will come from online video, accounting for 50 per cent of all screen entertainment revenue, surpassing television and redefining how the nation watches its stories unfold. The joint report projects total content investments to reach USD 7.5 billion by 2029, and online video is set to match television's share of spending for the first time. From just 15 per cent of investment in 2019, online video will rise to 43 per cent by 2029, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5 per cent. Meanwhile, TV's share has steadily declined from 67 per cent to 43 per cent, following the shift in consumer viewing behaviour, the report added. As one of Asia's largest video content markets, India's content investment has already reached USD 5.8 billion in 2024, nearly doubling since 2019. This growth is led by premium VOD platforms fuelling demand for original, regional, and mobile-first content. India's online video sector generated an estimated USD 4.2 billion in 2024, with 75 per cent driven by advertising and 25 per cent from subscriptions. Premium video-on-demand platforms–across freemium (ad-supported) and SVOD models–are gaining traction in a market historically shaped by user-generated and social video platforms, with SVOD alone contributing USD 1 billion. Yet, SVOD household penetration remains well below regional benchmarks, largely due to the persistent challenge of digital piracy, which also suppresses advertising revenue for freemium services. The report highlights that despite its scale and momentum, India's online video sector faces significant revenue and growth constraints due to unchecked digital piracy–targeted anti-piracy measures offer a clear path to recovery and reinvestment. In 2024, approximately 90 million users accessed pirated video content, resulting in USD 1.2 billion in revenue loss–equivalent to 10 per cent of the legal video industry, as per the report.

Pakistan plans to save $17bn by removing high-cost energy projects under revised IGCEP
The government intends to save Rs4,743 billion (USD17 billion) by excluding 7,967MW of high-cost energy projects and adjusting project completion timelines under the upcoming Indicative Generation Capacity Expansion Plan (IGCEP) 2024-2034, the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) said on Thursday. According to a press release issued by the PMO, the decision was made during a meeting chaired by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in Islamabad to discuss the reduction of electricity tariffs and implementing sustainable reforms in the energy sector, focusing on the IGCEP. Under the IGCEP, the government aims to prioritise local resources and alternative energy sources like solar, nuclear, and hydropower over imported fuels, which is expected to save Pakistan several billion dollars in foreign exchange reserves. The government also aims to gradually phase out capacity payments to power generation companies, added the statement. During the meeting, PM Shehbaz noted that after a recent reduction of approximately Rs7.50 per unit in electricity rates, the government is committed to pursuing an effective strategy for sustainable energy sector reforms to provide further relief to the public. Small renewable energy projects in IGCEP: HEPA seeks PM's support for inclusion The prime minister directed relevant authorities to expedite the completion of key projects, including the Diamer Bhasha Dam, to ensure effective systems for energy production and water storage in the country. 'Any delay in the completion of energy projects is unacceptable,' he emphasised. The prime minister also announced that a free market for electricity generation will be established in the near future. 'The creation of this market will enable competitive power supply, leading to more sustainable electricity availability and further reduction in tariffs,' PM Shehbaz was quoted as saying in the statement. During the meeting, the prime minister was briefed on ongoing reforms in the energy sector. Upon the PM's instruction, a re-evaluation of the IGCEP revealed that there was room for further improvement. The Task Force subsequently revised the plan to better align with ground realities and future needs. The briefing added that for the next ten years, the IGCEP paves the way for power projects to be awarded through competitive bidding and electricity to be sold at the lowest possible price. The meeting was attended by Minister for Power Sardar Awais Leghari, Minister for Economic Affairs Ahad Khan Cheema, Minister for Information Attaullah Tarar, Minister for Petroleum Ali Pervaiz Malik, and senior officials from relevant institutions.
