Business Scope:  

Eros International plc is a global player in the rapidly expanding Indian media and entertainment arena which is growing at over 18% CAGR and slated to cross US$ 29 billion by 2012 (source: PwC). Being vertically integrated means that Eros not only produces and commissions film projects similar to the way in which Hollywood studios operate but also globally distributes and exploits films across all formats including cinemas, digital and home entertainment and television syndication.

Established in 1977, Eros has over three decades of market leadership in creating a global platform for Indian cinema. The Company has an enviable distribution network that spans across 50 countries and has offices in India, UK, USA, Dubai, Australia, Fiji, Isle of Man and Singapore. Eros has built a successful business model by combining the release of a portfolio of 30-40 new films every year with the exploitation of a valuable film library of over 1,900 film titles, making it undisputedly one of the largest content owners in the business.
