Quint Digital Media Limited, originally Gaurav Mercantiles Limited, transformed from its historical ship-breaking and trading focus to digital media. The company pivoted to media and entertainment in 2019, acquiring the digital content business of Quintillion Media Private Limited in July 2020. This acquisition included prominent platforms like 'www.thequint.com', 'www.hindi.thequint.com', and 'www.fit.thequint.com', enabling Quint Digital to deliver diverse content including current affairs, lifestyle, and entertainment.
In further strategic expansion, Quint Digital acquired a 100% stake in Quintillion Media Limited and a 47.92% stake in Spunklane Media Private Limited in January 2022, making them wholly-owned subsidiaries. This acquisition underscores the company's commitment to strengthening its position in the digital media landscape, leveraging popular brands and expanding its footprint in the digital content domain.
