If there is 2 horse to bid, 1 is old and other is adult then on which one you will bid ?
But bharosa kaise hoga suppose the new horse kuch kar hi nahi paaya and the old horse which is doing things since day one is ignored to dono taraf se latak gaye naa that implies to Insat 4a and Gsat 10

This is our our govt/ system problem. Why they make such rule of fearing litigation from any company. If any company refuse to use allocated natural resources then go for bid? Is this ts fault or system fault?

Another is that govt company not gives service as per agreement so why we can expect this only from private company, who loss because of that govt company despite having matual agreement. Thats all now nothing say. Everyone have his own point of view.

Then pay additional amount to acquire additional TP at Insat 4A amount they can't take both.
But they are charging very high amount and it is the current market price not that which was done some years ago so how can they afford that

This is what DoS should have thought to ease DTH pain of Space issue :

DOS could not realise the planned/committed satellite capacity due to delayed satellite launches, power problems in the existing satellites, allocation of capacity for other purposes, etc. As a result, satellite capacity was arranged from foreign satellites for DTH services. Greater dependence on foreign satellites for Ku band transponders for DTH services eventually led to their dominance over Indian sky, to the extent that of the 76 Ku band transponders in use as of 2013, 57 were on foreign satellites and only 19 were on the INSAT system. The number of INSAT Ku band transponders for DTH services was expected to reduce further to only seven, as one of the DTH service providers viz. Tata Sky had also decided to move to foreign satellite system. By Department’s own estimate, the future demand of Ku band transponders was also planned to be met entirely from foreign satellites.

Failure to realise the satellites for Ku band transponders as planned also resulted in a situation where foreign satellites had occupied five orbital slots above Indian sky, thereby putting India at a disadvantage in maintaining its own INSAT fleet. DOS did not consider procured launches or hiring satellites to reduce the demand supply imbalance of Ku band transponder despite having sufficient funds. Instead, large amount ranging between `792 crore and `2,809 crore were surrendered annually during the last five years
