Inndustry will grow

Sample this: In 2005 there were just eight PE deals amounting to $142 million in value terms in the M&E space. In 2007, the number of PE deals have shot up to 31 with a combined value of a whopping $999.22 million. The percentage rise in terms of number of deals is close to 300% and the total value of PE deals in M&E space has escalated a mind boggling 600%. However, the share of M&E in the total private equity pie is still low, accounting for just 5% of the PE deals in terms of volume, and 7% in terms of value in 2007.

With increasing corporatisation in the M&E terrain and coming of age of this sector, PE has gain confidence in the industry. “Indian media companies have scaled up the extent where even companies like Walt Disney and Time Warner have struck equity deals with them,” points out Gaurav Saxena, media analyst with a reputed research firm. According to the FICCI-PWC report on Indian M&E sector the sector is currently (in 2007) worth Rs. 513 billion, 17% higher than last year (Rs. 38 billion). The M&E industry has been growing with a CAGR of 19% over last three years. The report estimates that the industry will grow at a CAGR of 18% for the next five years and touch the mind boggling figure of Rs. 1.157 trillion by 2012. The market cap of the media companies has also touched $15 billion.
