The second week’s ratings data from BARC India has finally been released after a little uncertainty owing to the registration issue with the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting. As promised, the issue was sorted in time for BARC to release the data on schedule. The latest BARC data for Week 17 has not thrown any surprises in terms of the pecking order of Hindi general entertainment channels.
