India Live Events Industry 2025: The Government of India will soon introduce a dedicated online Single Window Clearance Mechanism for the live events industry. The platform will be developed under the India Cine Hub initiative to streamline permissions and improve the ease of doing business.
This decision was taken during the first Meeting of the Joint Working Group on Promotion of the Live Events Industry in New Delhi, chaired by Information and Broadcasting Secretary Sanjay Jaju.
Digital Music Licensing Registry by October
A key highlight of the meeting was the decision to launch a Centralised Digital Music Licensing Registry by October 2025, in collaboration with music rights societies. This registry will simplify the licensing process for event organizers and ensure greater transparency in rights management.
