The company announced this after 56 out of the 74 scheduled matches were played during IPL 2023. Viacom18 is the digital streaming partner of IPL after having bagged the digital rights for the 2023-27 cycle for $2.7 billion. The IPL 2023 season is streaming for free, giving users access to matches in several Indian languages as well as English. In addition to these, JioCinema also offers the ability to use different modes like 360-degree, spider cam, bowler point of view, among others. “JioCinema continues to grow from strength to strength every week and it is based on clear evidence of consumer’s outright preference of catching the Tata IPL on digital [platforms],” said Viacom18 Sports CEO Anil Jayaraj. In terms of concurrent users – that is, users watching the match simultaneously – JioCinema recorded a peak of 2.4 crore users in the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) vs Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) match on April 17, beating the previous record 2.23 crore viewers in the CSK vs Rajasthan Royals just five days earlier. <keyword id="46161" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="disney" source="Orion">Disney</keyword> Star, on the other hand, has the TV broadcasting rights, and the Disney-owned network reported that its IPL 2023 viewership in the first four weeks stood at 43.4 crore users. It’s the second-highest viewership in IPL’s 16-year history. It is worth noting that while JioCinema’s statistics talk about video views, Disney Star’s statistics refer to users, so the two are not directly comparable. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="After IPL, JioCinema scoops up HBO" comment="subhead" text="After IPL, JioCinema scoops up HBO">After IPL, JioCinema scoops up HBO</cmsannotation> Pulling another coup on Disney, Viacom18 entered into a multi-year agreement in April with Warner Bros.

Starting May, JioCinema users will be able to stream HBO, Max Original and Warner Bros content on the app. In addition to this, JioCinema users will also get access to extremely popular movies and shows like Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Succession, and animation series like Tom &amp; Jerry Kids and Dexter’s Laboratory, among others. Making the announcement, Ferzad Palia, head - SVOD &amp; International Business, Viacom18, said, “We are now on a mission to build the most magnetic destination for entertainment for all Indians.” With a growing content library thanks to sports like IPL, FIFA World Cup, LaLiga, MotoGP 2023, and now HBO content, JioCinema has been spotted testing a premium subscription plan. In April, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/news/jiocinema-may-soon-launch-premium-subscription-plans-offering-4k-content-starting-at-2-per-day/articleshow/99736111.cms">a test website of JioCinema revealed</a> the company’s premium plans, which start from as low as ₹2 per day, with the top tier platinum plan costing ₹599 per annum. This is cheaper than what other top players like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+ Hotstar are charging – while Netflix starts at ₹1,788 per year for its mobile plan, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+ Hotstar charge ₹1,499 per year. That said, JioCinema’s premium plans are not yet live on the platform and it’s not known when or if they will be launched. All eyes will be on the company for more details. The loss of IPL and now HBO has eaten significantly into Disney+ Hotstar’s subscriber base – according to the company, Disney+ Hotstar <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/news/disney-loses-4-mn-subscribers-as-fresh-layoff-round-approaches/articleshow/100153975.cms">lost 4.6 million subscribers</a> in the March quarter, increasing from the 3.8 million loss in the December quarter.

From the existing subscriber base of 53 million, Disney+ Hostar is likely to lose another 10 million subscribers over the next three quarters.

IPL 2023 scores over 1,300 crore video views on JioCinema in the first five weeks

In what is seen as a major standdown, the pilots' union of <keyword id="2573" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="air-india" source="Orion">Air India</keyword> has withdrawn its opposition to the new wage pact and employment agreement. In a joint letter issued on Thursday, the Indian Pilots' Guild (<keyword id="179256" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="ipg" source="Orion">IPG</keyword>) and Indian Commercial Pilots' Association (ICPA) withdrew their stand and told their members that they are free to sign new wage contracts offered by the new <keyword id="6355725" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="tata-group" source="Orion">Tata group</keyword> management of Air India. "As dedicated <keyword id="4746568" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="air-indians" source="Orion">Air Indians</keyword>, we believe it is crucial to express our readiness to settle the dispute at hand and find an amicable resolution for the benefit of both parties," the IPG and ICPA said in a joint letter to their members. The letter further read, "Over the past year, our attempts to reach a resolution have been hindered by a lack of cooperation from the management. Their unwillingness to address our concerns and apathetic attitude has resulted in a prolonged stalemate and escalating tensions." "Upon the assurances given in the online 'Townhall Meeting for Pilots' and in the interest of the aspirations of Air India, The <keyword id="8555" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="tata" source="Orion">Tata</keyword> Group and our passengers, the Joint Directive No.01 of 2023, Sub: Unilateral Changes in Policies stands withdrawn," the letter titled as 'Withdrawn of Joint Directive Np01 of 2023', added. The announcement came after a joint meeting held on Thursday, wherein the unions' members were told that they are free to sign the new wage contract. Last month, the Tata Group-owned airline announced a new salary structure for pilots and cabin crew but the staff was disappointed with the revisions. Their main grouse was about promoting captains with more than four years of experience in management. In a communication to all employees including pilots and crew members in April this year, Air India management had said that they announced the revision of their employment contracts and revised compensation for flying staff. "I am reaching directly to our flying staff through this platform as currently there is no recognized union at Air India. This is within the framework of law," said Air India Chief Human Resource Officer Suresh Tripathi, had said in a video message. The airline had said that the contract sent is a compilation of applicable policies and existing rules. Wherever there are differences, their changes are introduced to have a performance and merit-based culture as would be the ask of any world-class and professionally run airline. In the last one year, they have been hearing all the concerns of their flying community through various forums and constant communication, the Air India management said. "Guaranteed flying allowance has moved upwards from existing 20 hours to fixed 40 hours. With our ambitious growth and large aircraft order, we as an organisation are confident to provide you more and more opportunities for flying. The fact remains that at 70 hours of flying, income across the board has increased. We are a productivity-oriented organisation, and anyone who is ready to contribute will grow and prosper," the airline had said. "Our Trainers who would be investing more time in training as we ramp up, have been given a significant increase in pay in the form of both fixed and variable. There is more than 40 per cent increase in the allowance for trainers," it added. Air India said flying allowance rates are one of the highest in the Indian industry, with even higher amounts beyond 40 hours. There used to be a difference in flying rates in the same pilot rank which has been done away with to promote fairness. They have introduced additional compensation during training of command upgrade and conversion training which was not existing earlier. There was not any service reward existing to recognise the contribution of experienced staff. A fixed amount has been added to salaries. "These are all changes we have introduced for the better and to become market competitive, which was a key ask. We have also introduced best-in-class employee insurance and other benefits which were not existing earlier at Air India to support the welfare of our flying staff," the airline's management had said.
