India’s recorded music business will nearly double over the next five years, bringing in an annual income of 18.9bn Indian Rupee (US $300m) in 2019. That’s according to projections from KPMG. India is currently the 20th biggest music markets by value in the world.

The Indian music industry cash tally is divided up as : 55% from digital music (downloads and streaming), 20% from physical, 10% from public performance and 20% from TV and Radio.


Year 2015 was a tough year for the Indian music industry thanks to a decline of around 30% in physical sales and a similar drop in sales of caller ring back tones.

Meanwhile, rampant piracy still reigns. 1%-2% of music is consumed by way of legal purchase in India, whereas 99% of the music consumption is still illegal. If piracy can be curbed then it would be a positive outlook for the Indian music industry.
