Kolkata: SVF Entertainment needs no introduction. As West Bengal’s premiere record label, and Eastern India’s largest film distributer, the company is a media powerhouse with the rights to scores of movies and hundreds of popular Bengali songs. In a major strategic decision to monetise their public performance and radio rights across India, the company has signed an exclusive agreement with PPL, India’s largest collective rights management organisation.
The said agreement will make SVF a member of PPL, which has seen rapid growth in membership over the past year. The music licensing company currently represents 320+ music labels with more than 1.5 million international and 0.8 million domestic songs in their repertoire. The signing on of SVF will further expand the company’s foothold into the growing East Indian market. For PPL’s thousands of license holders, this new agreement will mean the legal right to publically perform a plethora of Bengali dance hits like Dhaker Taale, O My Love and Benche Thakar Gaan, among others.
Mr. Mahendra Soni, MD, SVF Entertainment, reportedly said “Joining hands with PPL in India directly helps us focus on our core creative business. Earlier we were monetizing in parts ourselves. PPL has right teams and digital tools for them to enable monetize in a larger scale. The revenues we earn from public performance & radio, will plough it back in new talent and creating more hits.”
Commenting on this massive deal, Mr. Rajat Kakar, CEO & MD of PPL India said “SVF commands a lion’s share in Bengali music and they are the largest media and entertainment house in the East. The signing of SVF Entertainment is a big milestone as it takes us to No.1 position in the East Indian market. We are proud to associate with them”
About PPL:  PPL India is a Collective Rights Management Organization affiliated globally to IFPI (International Federation of Phonographic Industries) and represents the vast majority of Indian and Global Record Labels for monetization of their Public Performance rights and also licenses Radio Broadcasts for its members. It represents over 317 Music Labels and over 800,000 Indian works and more than 1.5 Million International Works, which it licenses to users of these in a professional and transparent manner. It is actively embracing Global best practices and is taking giant strides in order to enhance value for its members by increasing licensing coverage in India and overseas.

by samikha   Mumbai, May, 2024: The scion of Lord Shri Ram's lineage, Darwin Platform Group of Companies (DGPC) Founder and Chairman Ajay Harinath Singh has found himself targeted by unseen forces with vested interests. Retaliating to these ‘unseen forces’ the Darwin Platform Chief emphasized that life threats and malicious campaigns, resulting from political vendetta make him more determined to fight the battle and expose them.  The whispers of a conspiracy began years ago, fueled by jealousy and fear of his growing influence in the 2000s. Coming from a Royal family of Sultanpur (Uttar Pradesh), his popularity in the state and Maharashtra unnerved many political parties that used to govern. Aligned with sacred lineage, his passion for nation-building and Hindutva made him popular among people and the BJP, however, this antagonized Congress and their current allies. Questions are many- Was the Congress party, in its bid to maintain its hold on power, orchestrating a campaign t...
