History

Sale to Zee Enterprises

On 8 March 2010, it was reported that Zee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd. had made a bid of Rs 650 million for 9X, who owe Rs 1.30 billion to creditors.[3] The 9X Media acquired the deal with the creditors. On 20 April 2010, Zee Enterprises confirmed that it had secured an in-principle approval from its board for acquisition of 9X, under a Scheme of Arrangement, subject to appropriate statutory and regulatory approvals.[4] On 29 April 2010, ZEE Network's board of directors has approved the Scheme of Arrangement between ZEEL and 9X Media, former owners of 9X.[5][6]

Shutdown

The channel ceased all its operations on 10 August 2009 in UK[7] and 13 April 2015 in India as it stopped airing new content since 2009 and aired re-runs most of Zee TV shows.[8][9][10] The channel even suffered losses due to lack of GRP and viewership.[11][12]
