NDTV forays into online wedding market space with Special Occasions

04 Dec 2015 Evaluate

NDTV's Special Occasion, a wedding and festival platform, has raised funding at a valuation of $20 million. A US based venture capital firm, CerraCap Ventures has invested in the company’s forthcoming wedding venture.

The wedding industry in India is a $40 billion market which is highly disorganized and has operated the same way for decades. With India's growing tech savvy populous, this market is ripe for disruption. Special Occasions has the right team, vision and platform to enable this disruption and be a leader in this space.

NDTV operates as a television media company in India and internationally. Its channels offer news and current affairs, lifestyle, entertainment, and youth programs, as well as family and realty shows, chat shows, and period dramas.
