"We expect the M&E sector to grow 17 per cent in 2022 to reach Rs 1.89 lakh crore (USD 25.2 billion) and recover its 2019 pre-pandemic levels, then grow at a CAGR of 11 per cent to reach Rs 2.32 lakh crore (USD 30.9 billion) by 2024," it said. Though television remained the largest segment, digital media cemented its position as a strong number two segment followed by a resurgent print, it added.

In 2021, the advertising sector revenue was at Rs 74,600 crore in 2021 and is expected to have around 16 per cent growth this year. "The growth momentum is expected to continue in 2022 with a projected growth rate of 16 per cent, taking overall advertising revenue to Rs 86,500 crore," it added. It was at Rs 79,500 crore in the pre-pandemic year of 2019. "They are now barely 6 per cent short of their 2019 numbers," the report added. EY conducted a survey of 50 marketers across 10 sectors in February 2022 and had found over 80 per cent of them positive about growth in consumer spending. This was led by several factors such as IPL media rights sale in 2022, increase in the number of unicorns and continued PE funding and launches in the auto sector. Moreover FMCG, education and media-entertainment taking over online video and Pharma and e-commerce boom post-COVID-19 is also a key factor. Marketers remained bullish on events spends too, it added.
