In late 2009, UTVi had rebranded as Bloomberg UTV as UTV had switch to Bloomberg for additional content.[3] Reliance Group purchased UTV's stake in 2012 causing another rebranding to Bloomberg TV India.[2]
On August 1, 2016, the channel was rechristened as BTVi from Bloomberg TV India after the licensing agreement between Business Broadcast News and Bloomberg LP came to an end. Earlier in January, both Business Broadcast News and Bloomberg had decided not to renew their licensing agreement, ending a seven-year-old partnership.[4]
