Drastic drop in NTV's GRPs

 

TV5 celebrated its first anniversary on Thursday. It is a moment of celebration since it has achieved a lot. It crossed NTV which was a month ahead of it . Now TV5 is targetting to cross ETV2 also. But the management has given an impression that it is the no.1 channel and almost all the guests at the anniversary function repeated the same saying that the number one channel has to retain its position. They are kept in dark and the fact is : TV5 is still only half of the number one channel TV9. To make it more clear, let us see the latest ratings of these channels during the week ending with 27th Sept.

Among the news channels, TV9 has scored 139 Gross Rating points and its market share comes to about 5%. ETV2 has 76 points and the share is 3%. It is closely followed by TV5 with 72 points and 3%. There is drastic fall in NTV's performance as its GRPs are a mere 47 which comes to 2% market share. Gemini News is just less than 0.4%. It is imminent that Mr. Chowdary look back at his news channel though he is busy launching Vanitha TV.
