It will facilitate users to view and download television clips from 150-200 channels, sitting in the comfort of their office or on the move,” Murkute said.   The company plans to dilute 20-25% equity to raise funds for the portal that would allow registered clients to access any media monitoring data of their own including competitors news coverage as also options to generate various reports, Murkute said.   The proceeds of the funds raised would be deployed largely in promotional activity of the portal to ensure that the brand clip-byte is demystified among the target audience, he said.   Monitoring and analysis print media will commence in December 2014 while internet and social media monitoring would be available from January 2015.   Media monitoring is on the rise in the business and political fraternity with public relations agencies and in-house communication professionals using this tool to keep a tab on their rival competitors, as well as to understand the campaign effectiveness, message penetration for their products and services.   The portal may rake in revenues of around Rs 210 million in its first year of operations once commissioned in November.   The rising investor interest in e-commerce portal follows the rising euphoria in this business which is expected to grow 7-fold to $22 billion in the next 5 years.   About Clip-byte:  Param Digital Platform And Solutions, a company in the field of  developing and maintaining  digital video platforms.
