9X was an Indian Hindi general entertainment channel based in Mumbai.[3] It is owned by Zee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd. (ZEEL). The channel was launched on 12 November 2007 in India as the flagship of the INX Network.
History
[edit | edit source]Sale to Zee Enterprises
[edit | edit source]On 8 March 2010, it was reported that Zee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd. had made a bid of Rs 650 million for 9X, who owe Rs 1.30 billion to creditors.[4] The 9X Media acquired the deal with the creditors. On 20 April 2010, Zee Enterprises confirmed that it had secured an in-principle approval from its board for acquisition of 9X, under a Scheme of Arrangement, subject to appropriate statutory and regulatory approvals.[5] On 29 April 2010, ZEE Network's board of directors has approved the Scheme of Arrangement between ZEEL and 9X Media, former owners of 9X.[6][7]
Shutdown
[edit | edit source]The channel ceased all its operations on 10 August 2009 in the UK, where the ongoing shows were shifted to its sister music channel 9XM, making it a hybrid channel.[8] The channel ceased all its operations on 13 April 2015 in India as it stopped airing new content since 2009 and aired re-runs most of Zee TV shows.[9][10][11] The channel even suffered losses due to lack of GRP and viewership.[12][13]
