9X Media is a television network based in Mumbai, India. The company was founded by Indrani Mukerjea in 2007 through two companies, INX Media Pvt Ltd and INX News Pvt Ltd.

In March 2009, chairman and chief strategy officer Peter Mukerjea and founder and CEO Indrani Mukerjea left their management roles at INX Media.[1]

In August 2010, INX Media renamed themselves 9X Media as part of a restructuring process.[2] The move is in line with the company's strategy to undertake new media initiatives.
