After that, the government decided not to renew contracts given to private operators. The Times Group operated its brand, Times FM, till June 1998. It sold airtime blocks on its FM channels in Indore, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Varanasi, Visakhapatnam and Goa to private operators, who developed their own program content. The government then took the initiative to privatize the radio broadcasting sector. Until 1993, All India Radio or AIR, a government undertaking, was the only radio broadcaster in India. Radio Mirchi began operations in 1993 in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. The original avatar of Radio Mirchi was Times FM. Īs per the latest IRS data released in 2017, Radio Mirchi has emerged as the number one FM broadcaster in Delhi and Mumbai, as well as in the top 8 metros taken together. Mirchi has its stations in India and also in GCC countries: UAE, Qatar and Bahrain.
