Kids genre is the fourth largest genre in India after GEC and Movie genres. Kids genre viewership has grown from 30 percent in the last few years and growth in Kids viewership corresponds to 27 per cent growth of overall TV Universe. Kids are the single largest TV Audience amongst all the age Groups. The share of Cartoons/Animation in total kids Viewership has jumped to 89 per cent from previously 71 per cent.
With this shift to digital viewing, we’ve seen a wave of specialist kids OTT companies launching with the hope of attracting younger audiences by offering unique content and innovative product features. As a result, competition for eyeballs amongst providers is fierce, and it’s now more important than ever for rivals to push the limits of the traditional streaming service in order to stand out from the crowd.
