Oh okay my bad.
Well in the case of Men's IPL, i believe JIO is pretty much safe. Normally IPL is ad driven product for its broadcaster but in comparison to traditional TV. JIO is on steroids and an octopus in this context.
It'll still remain ad driven product as JIO already has close to 400+ Million active users in India. Apart from selling Subriciptions of JIO internet, JIO TV, JIO Music, apps (indirect revenue) etc it has a supermarket business too, which sells goods to its subscribers. Consumers will get all facilities on a single platform and they'll keep using it. It would give JIO the upper hand when dealing with ad rates as well.
Jio is taking a huge gamble here. All the other OTT platforms derive a majority of their income from subscription rather than advertisements. During the 2014-22 period, Indian economy grew at a rapid pace and that benefitted the television and OTT broadcasters. But there is no guarantee that the same will continue for the next 5 years (global economists have been warning about a recession since 2020). In India, a general election is due in around 12 months from now and there is a big risk for Jio if some kichdi government comes to power after the elections.
I remember the 2000s when Dhirubhai Ambani father of Mota bhai and Anil Ambani distributed millions of phones with free incoming-outgoing calls for just 500 rs. It was also a big gamble under kichdi government. We know how it revolutionized the telecom sector in India, the biggest winners were consumers. Not expecting any surprises in the next general election.
Apple doesn't fall from the tree (Anil was a bit failiure) but Mukesh Ambani proved that when he revolutionized internet Data and upped the game in the telecom industry (don't forget how Airtel, idea, Vodaphone used to exploit), again consumers were the biggest winner, and again I am expecting the same. Success and failure are part of the process but Ambani is no mug either.
