In just its second year of operation, ETC has not only consistently retained the top position among music-based channels in viewership rating but also translated this popularity to very impressive revenue and profit figures, according to a company press release issued on Friday.
ETC Channel Punjabi, the regional channel under the umbrella of ETC Networks Ltd., which has just completed only its second quarter of operation, is also doing extremely well, having beaten all established Punjabi channels in the ratings war, as also attracting impressive revenue figures.
Etc hopes to consolidate its position with a whole slew of new programmes which are scheduled to come on air in the near future.
