The debut edition is instituted to honor artistes in 23 categories across all genres of music - from film to spiritual music; indipop to devotional; ghazal to international and an Inspiration/Special Recognition Award for outstanding contribution to music over the years.

While the nominees of the popular categories are already being aired on the channel, MTV has invited viewers to vote via mtvindia.com, SMS on 8888 or through on-ground polling booths at MTV hangouts such as Music World, Planet M, Rhythm House and INOX multiplexes, for the 'Viewers Choice Vote', says a company release.

Constituted to celebrate the 100 year of the Indian recording industry, the Immies will be filmed before a live audience and broadcast to over 23.5 million homes on MTV and 32 million homes on Sony Entertainment Television on 14 December 2003.
