Mumbai: India’s first Global Multicast News Hub, Live Times, has achieved a major milestone as per BARC Week 45 data, recording an Average Time Spent (ATS) of 1 hour and 23 minutes in the Mumbai market.
This historic feat makes Live Times the most engaging news channel in Mumbai, with the highest viewer stickiness in its category, placing it ahead of long-standing national peers signalling a clear shift in viewer preferences, particularly among younger, urban audiences.

Dilip Kumar Singh, Founder of Live Times, said, “This historic and Unparallel ATS gives us strengthen to continue with the truth-based journalism and we thank the viewers for the continued support and encouragement”
