Management Discussion & AnalysisDigital Media

The rapid advancement of technology has made computer animation available to the masses and the animation industry is one of the fastest growing industries. The demand for animated entertainment has expanded with the increase in broadcasting hours by cable and satellite TV along with the growing popularity of the Internet. In the past, animation series were aimed at children aged nine and below. In recent years however, TV stations have been producing animation series for teenagers, adults and the whole family.

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 15 11

An overall 13 per cent growth from Rs 39.7 billion in 2013 to Rs 44.9 billion in 2014 was majorly due to the unpredictable changes that came about last year. The animation industry witnessed that earned Rs 332 million in India. Slowly, Indian animation production houses are realising the importance of developing their own IPs either on their own or in partnership rather than just depend on outsourced projects from mainly Hollywood.

The demand for animation content in India appears to be growing steadily over the last few years, following the success of international releases in India. The box offi ce collection from India of these international fi lms is minuscule when compared to overall collections. On the kids channels in India, domestic animation only constitutes 13 per cent of the content while majority is dominated by US made shows. “Television continues to be the principal segment for domestic consumption of animation content in India. As India has one of the largest populations of kids watching cartoons in the world (approximately 200 million) the need for kids’ content is growing,” states the report. The viewership however has been steady for several years with 2014 accounting for 7.3 per cent for kids content. The viewership trend for the year shows that the kids of today are increasingly inclined towards local content.

Channels have adopted a two-fold strategy to building kids brands, fi rst by developing a range of loveable characters and then to drive brand engagement beyond TV, through on-ground events, online and mobile platforms, consumer products etc. “The Indian animation industry is going through the transition phase where producers are contemplating about aiming at the international markets with big budgets and high quality products. The path to international success lies in producing good quality movies with smaller budgets of Rs 60 million to Rs 100 million for the domestic market and then tying up with an international distribution agency,” he said as the recipe to success.

The estimates on licensing & merchandising that organised retail in India is expected to grow from 9 per cent in 2015 to 20 per cent by 2020 with a good push being given to the merchandising industry too. The report states that brands should introduce products only when characters are suffi ciently popular. “The focus should be on creating long term relationships with licensees where the characters are converted into brands as they mature and once mature, can be exploited through the consumer products business; the characters then are timeless and not just a fl avour of a season,” it states. Outsourcing and co-production, 2014 wasn’t a spectacular year for the outsourcing industry due to increased competition from China and Far East countries. A new trend also emerged of modularization of animation where experts from multiple animation studios come together to provide service in specifi c parts of the value chain. This model which is popular in the mature markets is being adapted by local studios to save time and gets good quality. Studios in India can tie up with studios abroad to leverage on each other’s expertise by sharing the IP rights and revenues. This gives Indian studios a foot in the global market and also allows the two companies to take advantage of the benefi ts available in the other market.

Software

IT & ITeS

India is the world’s largest sourcing destination for the information technology (IT) industry, accounting for approximately 52 per cent of the US$ 124-130 billion market. The industry employs about 10 million Indians and continues to contribute signifi cantly to the social and economic transformation in the country. The IT industry has not only transformed India’s image on the global platform, but has also fuelled economic growth by energising the higher education sector especially in engineering and computer science. India’s cost competitiveness in providing IT services, which is approximately 3-4 times cheaper than the US, continues to be its unique selling proposition (USP) in the global sourcing market. The Indian IT and ITeS industry is divided into four major segments – IT services, business process management (BPM), software products and engineering services, and hardware.

The IT-BPM sector in India grew at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25 per cent over 2000-2013, which is 3-4 times higher than the global IT-BPM spend, and is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 9.5 per cent to US$ 300 billion by 2020. Indian IT’s core competencies and strengths have placed it on the international canvas, attracting investments from major countries. The computer software and hardware sector in India attracted cumulative foreign direct investment (FDI) infl ows worth US$ 13,788.56 million between April 2000 and December 2014, according to data released by the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP).

Indian Government Initiatives, the adoption of key technologies across sectors spurred by the ‘Digital India Initiative’ could help boost India’s gross domestic product (GDP) by US$ 550 billion to US$ 1 trillion by 2025. India continues to be the topmost offshoring destination for IT companies followed by China and Malaysia in second and third position, respectively. Emerging technologies present an entire new gamut of opportunities for IT fi rms in India. Social, mobility, analytics and cloud (SMAC) collectively provide a US$ 1 trillion opportunity. Cloud represents the largest opportunity under SMAC, increasing at a CAGR of approximately 30 per cent to around US$ 650-700 billion by 2020. Social media is the second most lucrative segment for IT fi rms, offering a US$ 250 billion market opportunity by 2020.The US$ 12 billion plus rising Indian e-commerce business market is witnessing a rush of hiring and may need 100,000 people over the next six months, as per industry experts. The industry offers a slew of opportunities and scope for innovation thereby attracting the young mind to push their limits.

Internet & E-Commerce

India’s internet economy is expected to touch Rs 10 trillion (US$ 161.26 billion) by 2018, accounting for 5 per cent of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP), according to a report by the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Internet and Mobile Association

PENTAMEDIA GRAPHICS LIMITED12

of India (IAMAI). In December 2014, India’s internet user base reached 300 million, the third largest in the world, while the number of social media users and smartphones grew to 100 million. The private equity (PE) deals increased the number of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) especially in the e-commerce space in 2014. The IT space, including e-commerce, witnessed 240 deals worth US$ 3.8 billion in 2014, India also saw a ten-fold increase in the venture funding that went into internet companies in 2014 as compared to 2013. Internet should be a basic human right, say 87 per cent of internet users in India, compared with 83 per cent globally, according to a report by Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI).

Cloud Services

In yet another Gartner report, the public cloud market alone in the country was estimated to treble to US$ 1.9 billion by 2018 from US$ 638 million in 2014. The increased internet penetration and rise of e-commerce are the main reasons for continued growth of the data centre co-location and hosting market in India.
