BARC TRP, Sample Size & All Information

This is BARC's own survey, which will help the measurement body make changes to its universe estimation. The survey was carried out between November 2017 and March 2018. It covers 300,000 respondents across 4,400 towns and collects data on TV ownership, connection type, language preferences and other media consumption habits

TRP system is stupid 😆 India has a large population but only 30k meters are installed in a few selected houses in different cities

Older Agency TAM used to collect from only 900 homes..!! Seriously lol nonsense.

I was trying to explain this only. Jaise bichare dukh ke maare fans samajh rahein hai, waise trp nhi badti. Keeping tv on waghera. If u r trp house u will know, aur saaf zahir hai ki na koi forum wale aur jahan tak padha hai na SM wale trp audience hai.

this TRP system sucks big time.

out of 19.7cr. households they only collects from 3 lakhs is joke 🤢

Thanks for the valuable information. I'm shocked to learn that 300k homes are assumed to represent 19.7 cr population. This is totally a flawed system and definitely the popularity of our show cannot be gauged like this. The whole TRP thing looks like a joke to me. Content based shows obviously will suffer if the TRP is calculated this way. Can we know where these so called devices are installed? I can request my relatives in India to turn the TV on by that time.

19.7 cr people with tv connection and only 3 lakh house with barc meter?!!😆🤢i wanna knw how they are segregating this into urban and rural when the overall meter itself is only 3k?!! Indian trp system sucks🤢 itv will never progress with this stupid trp system. And the sampling is much worse than the barc meter installation process :/ till this trp system changes itv will revolve around snakes,witches,saas bahu dramas oly!

Trp or Barc will be calculated through set up box system In India now the Government insisting all the houses to have set up box with this they calculate trp as there r many private satellite systems r there like tata sky airtel and sun direct etc for eg if we have tata sky then whatever channel or programme we will see that will be recorded in the tata sky service centre near ur house and barc office they take average of all this service centre recordings and they calculate and through this trps the shows get ads and lif PH and channel get profit then they continue the show

this system is so STUPID! when BP aired its TRP was 2.7...so higher TRP is possible...TRP audience hopefully watches in on tv...i'm praying with my whole heart...
