The HQ and studio of the channel is at Fort, Thiruvananthapuram(Trivandrum). It has a recording centre at Ernakulam too. They are planning to build a state-of-arts HQ in Trivandrum
The channel owners claim that their vision is to create programmes that meet international standards of production excellence. Kairali TV has gained considerable viewership and popularity in a short span of time. PEOPLE TV is another channel owned by Kairali, that caters news and current affairs round the clock. YOUTH TV, a channel for the youth is to be launched soon.
Often the news and associated programmes are biased towards its political patronhood. A slapstick variant of situation comedy locally known as "mimicry" (considered as a performance art in Kerala) is one of its staple.
