What Exactly is TVR?
TVR stands for Television Viewership Rating, a crucial metric that quantifies the percentage of the target audience tuned into a particular program at any given time.
Essentially, it reveals how many out of the total potential viewers were watching a specific show— for instance, a TVR of 5 indicates that 5% of TV-owning households joined that program.
This rating is vital in the television industry for assessing a program’s popularity and its advertising appeal.
With recent updates in India’s rating systems, TVR might now be supplemented by metrics like TVT (Television Viewership in Thousands) or AMA (Average Minute Audience).
