TM looks for distributors in India, elsewhere
MUMBAI:India is one of the countries where TM Systems, an Emmy award winner this year, is looking for international distributors/ sales/ service representatives to add to its key worldwide production markets during the current year.
Global sales of the TM Systems software technology for language translation, dubbing and subtitling will be coordinated from the company’s new Los Angeles offices. The company, says TM SYSTEMS VP Worldwide Sales, David L. Gibbar, is looking for seasoned distributors of other professional audio and recording products with an established and developed client base. Key markets targeted include Japan, China, Korea, India, The Middle East, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, South Africa and Canada.
TM SYSTEMS is a 2002 Emmy Award winner for the creation and implementation of the industry’s first fully-integrated, non-linear language localization system, offering programmers throughout the globe a first-ever consistent, efficient, integrated, less costly and more timely manner in which to complete all language translation, dubbing and subtitling for feature films, television programming and DVD releases.
TM SYSTEMS, claims the company, has now become the de facto industry standard, and has revolutionized the entire language localization business. The company has pioneered efforts in eliminating the use of VCRs and videotapes from the translation, dubbing and subtitling process. All elements of language translation, dubbing and subtitling are less costly, take less time to complete, are more efficient, have greater consistency, and are rid of piracy, thanks to TM products, claims the company.

Zee Business corners 74.2 per cent market share on Budget Day, BARC data shows
Channel extends lead as investors tune in for policy decoding and markets
MUMBAI: Zee Business tightened its grip on India’s business news audience on Union Budget Day, commanding a 74.2 per cent market share during peak coverage hours, according to data from Broadcast Audience Research Council (BARC).
The numbers, tracked between 0800 and 1000 hrs in north India among NCCS ABC males aged 22 and above, underscore the channel’s dominance as investors and traders tuned in for real-time policy decoding and market reaction. The share was calculated across two business news channels.
Industry executives say the spike mirrors an earnings-call-style verdict from viewers: speed, clarity and conviction won the day. Zee Business has retained its leadership beyond Budget Day, topping the charts on a daily, weekly and monthly basis, signalling sustained audience loyalty rather than a one-off surge.
The ratings momentum carried into Budget Samvad 2026, the channel’s flagship post-Budget discussion, broadcast live from the Bombay Stock Exchange. The session was moderated by Zee Business managing editor Anil Singhvi, and featured market veteran Ramesh Damani, among other participants.
Viewers were drawn to wall-to-wall Budget analysis, sharp market calls and plain-English interpretation of policy measures: an approach that continues to differentiate the channel in a crowded news market.
“The 74.2 per cent share reflects viewer trust in timely and credible market insight,” Singhvi said, adding that the post-Budget forum was designed to move beyond headlines and unpack the implications for investors and the broader economy.
