- Inspire Films Limited (INSPIRE.NS) engages in the creation, production, distribution, and exhibition of original content across television and digital platforms. The company operates through three primary business verticals—television content for Hindi general entertainment channels (GEC), digital content and platforms including over-the-top (OTT) services, and regional content—offering commissioned content production, original intellectual property development, and licensing and distribution services. Its portfolio includes popular television series such as Ek Veer Ki Ardaas Veera, Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise Bhi, Sadda Haq – My Life My Choice, Channa Mereya, Ishq Mein Marjawan, and Dear Ishq; digital web series like Tu Zakham Hai; sports documentaries and unscripted programs; and short-form content under its proprietary digital label Freshh Mint, which features youth-oriented narratives including long-form web series, Mint Shorts, and original IPs launched on YouTube.
Founded in January 2012 and headquartered in Mumbai, India, Inspire Films primarily serves broadcasters, OTT platforms, and media networks in a B2B model, with key partners including Star Plus, Life OK, Colors, Sony Entertainment, Disney+ Hotstar, MX Player, and Zee Entertainment. The company, formerly Inspire Films Private Limited, converted to a public limited entity in May 2023 and listed on the NSE Emerge platform via an initial public offering in October 2023. It functions as a subsidiary of Beyond Dreams Entertainment Private Limited and has produced over 40 projects encompassing more than 6,500 episodes and 3,000 hours of content, earning over 150 nominations and awards across platforms like Indian Television Academy Awards, Indian Telly Awards, and Dadasaheb Phalke Awards.
Recent developments include the launch of its original digital label Freshh Mint in May 2024 with the premiere of youth-focused web series 'Aukaat Se Zyaada' on YouTube; a strategic alliance with Kaavya Motion Pictures Private Limited in March 2024; a landmark production deal with a global OTT platform for a spellbinding web series in April 2024; a multi-project IP licensing agreement with Zee Entertainment in November 2023; and multiple IP distribution contracts, including one with a major Indian broadcasting network in April 2024 and a web series project based on a popular novel in April 2024. In H2 FY24, the company reported revenue of Rs 9.08 crore, EBITDA of Rs 2.91 crore, and PAT of Rs 1.13 crore, reflecting robust financial performance amid expansion into licensing, distribution, and youth-targeted digital content. Operations remain centered in India, with content distributed domestically across 33+ networks.
