Sony Music Publishing has renewed its exclusive global deal with India’s TIPS Music. The deal is expanded to include YouTube worldwide, excluding India, as a key platform for international publishing exploitation.

The expanded multi-year agreement grants Sony Music Publishing extended rights to Tips Music’s catalog, which features over 32,000 tracks across 24 languages.

The company also has a slate of independent music releases under the Tips Originals brand.

The strategic renewal reinforces both companies’ commitment to amplifying the global presence of Indian music, particularly as Bollywood soundtracks continue to gain momentum in international markets.
