TV NOW, operated by the Kerala Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI), will deliver programming in high definition to 40 million viewers across the state of Kerala in southwest India. Station management prides itself on its modern, forward-thinking approach in offering round-the-clock news that is accessible to viewers via smart phones, tablets, and other devices.

With TV NOW, we aim to create an exceptional television viewing experience and the only way to do that is with superior technology in place. Grass Valley's expertise and experience in broadcast technologies made them the obvious choice for us, and we are so pleased to be working with them on this important project, commented K.N. Marzook, Chairman at KCCI.
The broadcast market in India is currently going through a period of exciting change and is a vital part of Grass Valley's pathway, said Stephen Wong, Senior Vice President of Asia Pacific, Grass Valley. We're excited to show broadcasters how our products can not only enable them to better manage their on-air operations but ensure flexibility for the future growth of their stations. Our solutions integrate seamlessly with TV NOW's installed equipment, creating a one-stop solution to reach viewers faster, with enriched quality as news breaks around the globe.
