Times NOW

Times NOW is an English news channel owned by The Times Group, publisher of the Times of India. It launched on 23 January 2006, originally in partnership with the news agency Reuters, and for many years it was the most-watched English news channel in the country. Its Hindi sister channel is Times Now Navbharat, and the group also runs ET Now and Zoom.

The channel covers national politics, Parliament, elections, the economy, courts, defence and international stories, with live coverage whenever big news breaks. Prime time is given over to debates where politicians, experts and commentators argue over the issues of the day. It is a good fit for English-speaking viewers who want quick headlines through the day and a heated discussion in the evening.

Other English news channels on NoWireTV include Republic TV, India Today and NDTV 24x7. For Hindi coverage from the same group, try Times Now Navbharat.

Watch Times NOW live online on NoWireTV and follow English news live as it happens. It is free to stream on the website, on the NoWireTV Android app and on Fire TV, so you can catch the headlines on your phone or the big screen.
