JioSaavn hits 500 million downloads, eyes next growth phase

JioSaavn hit 500 million downloads on Google Play, making it the second-biggest entertainment app in India behind JioHotstar. The streaming platform holds around 100 million monthly users who access more than 100 million songs across 15 languages, though that user count has basically stayed the same since 2019. Both services run under the Jio umbrella owned by Reliance Industries.

The company credits its growth to dirt-cheap pricing and interface upgrades like personalized Daily Mixes and community playlists. JioSaavn Pro goes for about 10 cents during two-month promos and roughly $4.42 annually, while Spotify Premium costs $2.21 monthly in the same market. Premium streaming jumped 43.9% in India during the first half of 2025, pushing the country past South Korea for third place in the Asia-Pacific region, but less than 20% of streams come from paid accounts.

Several competitors have bailed from the Indian market recently, with Hungama, Resso, and Wynk Music all shutting down operations.
