Raj TV was one of the first broadcasters to convert analog transmission into digital. The network’s strength has been its large content base addressing every member of the family thereby making it a true “People’s Channel”. It currently operates two channels — Raj TV and Raj Digital plus, which are 24-hour Tamil channels. In March 2007, it signed an agreement with the Singapore Government owned TV 12 for exporting content to TV12’s Vasantham Central, a popular Channel airing programmes for the Indian community in Singapore. Earlier this year, the Company tapped the Indian capital markets with an initial public offering (“IPO”) of 35,68,250 equity shares of face value of Rs. 10, for cash, at an Issue Price of Rs. 257, which was decided after a 100% book-building process.
