Filmcity Media Ltd

Filmcity Media Limited was initially incorporated in the name of 'Kavita Prakashan Private Limited' in April, 1994. Thereafter, the name of the Company was changed to Filmcity Media Private Limited in June, 1995. The status of the Company was converted into a Public Limited Company in July, 1995 and the name got subsequently changed to Filmcity Media Limited. The Company is engaged in the business of Film production, Distribution and Exhibition. In 1995, the Company set up post production facilities of editing, dubbing, mixing, including making master of video software for telecast and also to enter into producing television software for television channels at Juhu Village, Bombay. To part-finance the capital expenditure incurred by the Company to set up its own video software production facilities for production of television software and to produce its own television serials, the Company made a public issue of 30 lac equity shares of Rs 10 each for cash at par aggregating Rs 300 lac. The FY 2009-10 was a challenging year for the Company. The Income derived mainly from sale of T.V. serials/ Documentary sale, and the stock of which was received in ready-to-air form on account of merger with Filmcity Communication Technologies Ltd. during the year. The Company started the operations with the publishing of its own magazine 'Filmcity' as the No. 1 weekly magazine on Hindi Films at that time. It later diversified into electronic media by setting up a video studio with complete shooting and post production equipment. Over the past years, the Company established recognition and relations within the media industry and went on to produce many programmes for Doordarshan National and its local channels. In 2022, the Company got the privilege to count Zee TV, Star Plus amongst some private network as its client base. With the gradual decline in print media sector, and fierce competition in production media faced by the Company from its competitors, the TV programmes produced by the Company could not be telecasted and due to these reasons, the Company faced difficulty to survive in the market from FY 2023 onwards.
