Trp raw data cannot be manipulated but the accuracy can be questioned.

Rains or construction work may disturb signals. Even if we mute or switch during ads ratings are effected. For accurate results TV sets have to be switched on by 9.55 pm and without any distraction a TV viewer can change around 10.35 pm. The impressions are in thousands so for a 2 trp approx 4.5 million house holds across India has to watch YRHPK. Figures vary

Please refer Bepannaah forum, plenty of discussions there.

The data derived is from SD cable TV owners and not HD or dth services like tata sky. Private and mnc cable TV providers are asking huge amount of money to reveal their list to BARC which is still under dispute.

IB ministry has tried to break this protocol regarding trps so a set top box is compulsory for all TV sets. This signal emitted from the box goes to a panel house which has a meter. IDK how it works, I think they have activated return path way system and if they haven't then trp depends on those 50000 odd meter boxes which are still considered as samples. I maybe wrong dth providers like sky have return path activated and these numbers go directly to gecs.

Off late since 2018 consumers have been sending emails to trai regarding trps.. Over and above Cable owners associations and dth end users never see eye to eye. To bring uniformity in trps, the government proposed pay for the channel you watch and if any household wants everything, spend more.

There is no uniformity here, forms are still in collection mode and every user goes on changing the list they want to see or no. for example my neighbour took star and slashed colors , next month she might take Sony only as she is fed with other Gecs

In this way the entire data is skewed. Star and Zee are the oldest amongst channels so many have opted for them. Colors have lowest package deals. Nothing is uniform.

the actual numbers can be manipulated by the officials who assimilate ratings.

We cannot blame one PH, others also can play dirty. It is very dicey.

YRKKH also had those set viewers, if the fall is steep then many aren't watching.

For this 10 pm slot BP is going to give tough competition., World cup is also going on.

Survival is difficult especially when a show has established stars and budgets are high.

Therefore 1.6 trp when the plot is weak is still good. Shaheer may be having lot of SP fans.

Ekta's shows do not deserve the limelight. It is highly likely that the trps are rigged.

Thats the thing! The plot is not at all weak. It has a lot of potential compared to the shows that are currently in the top 5

The cricket matches are around the year so can't help. Most of SP serials were fallen this week and color is second just lagging by 2, slowly coming back in race and Naggin ending underperformed. SP and colors are always inversely proportional. Some serials with 1.8 with big star cast and budget went off air once they just out from top 10. It's all depends on budget and returns. To survive longer, needs loyal TRP fans.

Audience like to watch cliched outdated drama instead of progressive real life problems unfortunately. They find happiness in watching typical old age problems not new ones.

They can't move out of their habit. They like to rewatch same stuff. Typical ISFJ personality type mentality

I mean Ekta and SP wants to get rid of YHM and there is no story intentionally there yet ppl like to watch that leftover says a lot!

KK's online TRP is made sure to be 1 by adding it on ALTBalaji along with hotstar and other mediums.

Rupal, Rhea, the guy playing Kunal everyone have their fans esp. it is Rupal who have more TRP fans next Shaheer comes.
