Fox (India)

Fox is a brand of television channels owned by Fox Networks Group, a subsidiary of the International Operations division of The Walt Disney Company. The brand was included with Disney's acquisition of 21st Century Fox in 2019. It shares its name with the Fox Broadcasting Company, a now unaffiliated American television network owned by the Fox Corporation, which was spun off from 21st Century Fox before the sale. Except for the channel in Turkey, which focuses on original programming, the international Fox channels generally focus on syndicated programming.

As part of an agreement with Fox Corporation, Disney will phase out the Fox brand by 2024; the brand will continue to be leased as part of the transitional phase. As of 2022, areas that have been affected by the discontinuation of the Fox brand have included Latin America and Brazil; these networks have since been relaunched under the Star (stylized as ST★R) branding.
