by
Gulshan Kumar,

Delhi

, prior to releasing original music.
Back then, the Indian
audio cassette market was small-scale, with widespread piracy, but there was growing demand for cassette music. According to ''
Rediff'', while Kumar "was involved in piracy, he was passionately market- and consumer-driven."
The company also took advantage of loopholes in copyright law allowing for the release of cover versions of songs, which T-Series would then flood the market with.
Researchers Lawrence Liang and Ravi Sundaram wrote:
Kumar discovered that there was also a market for devotional music, and began recording and selling it. Kumar noticed that many elderly Hindu followers could not read hymns and chants because of failing eyesight, so Kumar hired singers to record the chants and sold them as cheap cassettes. Later, he filmed major Hindu pilgrimages in India and sold them on
VHS and
video cassette tapes.
T-Series' first original film soundtrack release was for ''Lallu Ram'' in 1984, with music scored by
Ravindra Jain.
The company's breakthrough came when it released the soundtrack for the 1988

Mansoor Khan and starring
Aamir Khan and

Anand–Milind and written by
Majrooh Sultanpuri, became the best-selling Indian
soundtrack album of 1988 and one of the best-selling Indian soundtrack albums of the 1980s,
with more than 8 million units sold.
The biggest hit song from the album was "

and picturised on Aamir Khan. T-Series founder Gulshan Kumar soon played a key role in Bollywood's cassette boom of the late 1980s with his affordable T-Series albums.
T-Series later became a leading music label with the release of ''
Aashiqui'' (1990),
directed by
Mahesh Bhatt. The ''Aashiqui'' film soundtrack album, composed by the duo
Nadeem–Shravan, sold 20 million units in India,

Many of the best-selling Bollywood music albums of the 1990s, particularly those composed by Nadeem–Shravan, were released under the T-Series label.
Besides music production, the company also began venturing into film production.

In 1997, T-Series founder Gulshan Kumar was murdered by the
Mumbai mafia syndicate

His assassination also led to T-Series losing its most prolific musicians at the time,
Nadeem–Shravan, due to Nadeem Akhtar Saifi initially being accused of involvement in the murder, before later being
exonerated. After Gulshan Kumar's death in 1997, the company has since been led by his son

The growth of T-Series' YouTube channel has been attributed to
India's emerging online population. India currently has 500 million Internet users and this number is expected to grow rapidly. A major breakthrough in India's Internet growth came in September 2016 with the advent of
4G network
Reliance Jio, offering data at very low costs.
India has since emerged as the world's second-largest online population (behind

, where
YouTube is blocked), with YouTube alone having over 225 million monthly Indian users. India's high demand for YouTube content and the lack of local
content creators has contributed significantly to the rapid growth of T-Series.
The growth of T-Series is also attributed to its growing audience outside of India.
About 40% of the channel's traffic comes from outside of India,
including 12% from the United States.
The majority of the channel's overseas viewers belong to the global
South Asian diaspora. More recently, the channel's overseas viewership has increased further, as a result of
attention and controversy drawn to the channel by foreign
YouTubers such as PewDiePie and
MrBeast.
On 22 February 2019 at 6:04 AM, T-Series surpassed
PewDiePie for the first time to become the
most-subscribed YouTube channel, with PewDiePie regaining the spot 8 minutes later. T-Series overtook PewDiePie in a similar manner many more times over the following weeks, and on 27 March, finally gained and maintained, until 1 April, the top spot by a fluctuating, but overall growing, margin.
Legal issues
In November 2007, T-Series filed a lawsuit against YouTube for infringing on the copyright of its music by allowing users to upload videos of its music onto YouTube, which could be accessed for free, and obtained an interim order against YouTube from the Delhi High Court, which restrained YouTube from infringing on its copyrights.
T-Series and YouTube settled out of court in January 2011.
In April 2019, after PewDiePie released two
diss tracks against T-Series, "
Congratulations" and "
Bitch Lasagna", T-Series filed a complaint with the
Delhi High Court
The High Court of Delhi (IAST: ''dillī uchcha nyāyālaya'') was established on 31 October 1966, through the ''Delhi High Court Act, 1966'', with four judges, Chief Justice K. S. Hegde, Justice I. D. Dua, Justice H. R. Khanna and Justice S. ...
to have the songs removed from YouTube, arguing that they were "defamatory, disparaging, insulting, and offensive". Despite Kjellberg's statement that these diss tracks were "done in good fun", the court issued a temporary injunction in favour of T-Series on 8 April 2019 and access to the diss tracks on YouTube was blocked in India.
In August 2019, it was reported that T-Series and PewDiePie had settled their legal disputes outside of court.
