With the change in government at the Centre, direct-to-home (DTH) operators are hopeful of getting some respite from the multi-layer taxes they have to pay. On behalf of the six private DTH players, Dish TV has appealed to finance minister Arun Jaitley and information and broadcasting (I&B) minister Prakash Javadekar for an audience to discuss the issue.

The industry had raised the issue of multi-layer taxation in the past as well. Currently, DTH operators pay 10 per cent (of annual revenue) to the Centre in the form of licence fee and 12.3 per cent as service tax. Additionally, they pay entertainment tax to individual state governments as prescribed by them. “In some states, like Uttar Pradesh, the entertainment tax is as much as 33 per cent. On a pan-India level, each private DTH player pays roughly nine per cent in entertainment tax. Adding this to the licence fee and service tax we pay, the total comes to nearly 32 per cent, which is very high,” says R C Venkateish, chief executive, Dish TV India.

Voices coming from Other DTH operators too :

"Till GST is not rolled out, the industry should get abatement in paying service tax. That is all that we are asking for. We are ready to pay taxes but we should not be taxed by the central government and state government both," Tata Sky CEO & MD Harit Nagpal told PTI.

The DTH industry has to pay entertainment tax to state governments and service tax to the centre, said Nagpal, who is also President of the DTH Operators Association of India.

Expressing similar views, Dish TV CEO R C Venkateish said: "No other industry pays double taxation and we have asked for abatement of the service tax".

He also asked for a reduction on the licence fee paid by DTH operators to six percent from 10 percent at present.

Casbaa, the cable and DTH industry body, said government must consider a cut in customs duty on STBs (set-top boxes) and its components. "The government should lower the customs duty on STB and bring it to the earlier five percent so that the boxes. The falling rupees against dollar has put huge pressure on the MSO in importing STBs," Casbaa Executive Director Anjan Mitra said.
