What is Gaana ?

Gaana.com features music from 21 Indian languages including the major languages such as AssameseBengaliBhojpuriEnglishGujaratiHindiKannadaUrduOdiaMarathiPunjabiTamilTeluguMaithiliMalayalam and other Indian regional languages.

How has Gaana’s growth been so far?

In 2016, we had 11 million monthly users. Today, that’s grown almost eight times on the back of the 4G revolution and data prices coming down. Our biggest unique selling proposition is understanding how people have consumed content over the last six or seven years. We’ve developed a lot of data. We know what works in new releases versus old releases, across languages, and so on.

Though this is a heavily competitive space, if you look at the homegrown player perspective from a standalone over-the-top standpoint, Gaana is the only one. Saavn got acquired by Jio. All others have telco backing at this point in time. Couple others are paid-only like Google, Apple, and Amazon.
