The new 13.02 GRP level shatters the previous highest ratings mark of 4.4 GRP reported on February 12, 2021 representing an astonishing growth rate of 295% in only eight weeks. The channel's rating this week is now more than two times the ratings on other comparable youth oriented channels in the market including channels owned by MTV (Viacom), Bindass (Disney) and Zoom (Times of India). In addition, The Q India continues to dominate its youth-focused channel peer group in Time Spent Viewing (TSV) with 61 minutes as compared to its closest competitor, MTV India, with an average TSV of 43 minutes.
