Backing Prime Minister Narendra Modi's call for 'Make in India' products, India's leading direct-to-home (DTH) operator Dish TV is re-evaluating possibilities of domestic manufacturing of set-top-boxes. Jawahar Goel, managing director, Dish TV, said, the company was hopeful of improvement in the hardware economics of STBs sourced from India. "We hope that the taxation structure will be suitably amended to benefit local production," said Goel.

And while multiple taxation remains one of the biggest challenge for the Indian DTH industry, Goel expressed optimism about the economic advantages of the Goods and Services Tax (GST), saying its implementation will result in potential cost savings and margin expansion and the company was looking forward to its early enactment.
