People's meter are installed in some randomly chosen homes and the ratings are calculated as to how these homes watch TV. Few years back there were only 8000 of these machines installed and also the Southern part of India dint had any. Though in statistics its always a sample is chosen and then the results are projected on the larger population. However, to project the views of 8000 people on a country of 1.25+billion does not represent the population well... so this TRP isnt actually how the Indian audience watch TV. its merely based on these 8k houses that whole TRP game works...
TAM, the sister concern of Nielsen, is the company doing this TRP calculations and its always under criticism and allegations of not projecting the number accurately.

I know but I guess you are not following it since last one and half year. Sincethen it is BARC which had installed around 40K meters. Though the Meter nos are less for a 1.25 B population but that's how opinion poll thing works for elections and ita gives rough idea what is more popular and what is not.Sample data is ideally followed all over world.So that's no problem I think as installation of meters at each and every house is not feasible and possible.I agree Sony shows are having more online viewers hence less Trp. Maybe that's why they focused on Sony LIV app. This is also revenue generating platform , read somewhere Super Dancer, Porus and YUDKBH are very popular on Sony LIV app.See MTV's popular show KYY was also mega hit on digital platform, that's why they are coming with its Season 3 on Voot app only.Sony may follow the suit. Super Dancer Finale Live Voting is an example.Maybe after some years we may get YUDKBH S2 on Sony LIV app.
