This Is The Only Reason Why I'm Hesitating To Opt For Tata Sky Long Term Package
They must have thought for future only and thats why adding all hd and sd channels had they been suffering from space they would not have added so many channels and would have kept space for future additions

INSAT 4A (launched in 2005) is expected to run out of its thruster fuel soon and will be moved down to a graveyard orbit and later deorbited into the Indian ocean.

GSAT 10 (with 12 Ku transponders) occupies the exact same slot 83 degrees East as INSAT 4A avoiding the need for receiver dish antenna realignment.

Department of Space (DoS) may launch another satellite in the same orbital slot (83 East) in future. Nice reads below:

DoS' failures caused Indian DTH players to opt for foreign satellites: CAG | TelevisionPost.com

BTW, 83 Degree East is almost dead centre of Indian Subcontinent - the local time at 82 and half Degree being the Indian Standard Time (IST).
