The IPL Media Rights e-auction is over and Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah took to Twitter to announce the details of the new valuation of the lucrative Indian Premier League. The Indian cricket board has managed to rake in more than 48 thousand crore rupees through this auction for the next five year cycle of the league from 2023 to 2027. This is almost three times the amount it had received for the previous 5-year cycle.

Disney Star held on to the TV rights in India while Reliance’s Viacom18 won the digital rights, which fetched more money for the board than the TV rights.

The total amount for brand IPL stands at Rs 48,390 crore according to Shah’s tweet.
