Important How TRAI’s cross-media restrictions can impact Star, Zee and Sun

[DashMajor]

Before report was made that TATA(SKY and dishtv charges more carriage fees from broadcasters but with recent exclusive addition from dishtv its look like they're now concentrating on more and more channels so they know that they any how recover the carriage fee issue with the additions.

When was this reported ?

Instead as far as i know Dish and Tata Sky are charging the lowest carriage fee followed by d2h and ADTV.

 

[DashMajor]

I read it somewhere during Indiacast Vs. dishtv when Indiacast claims that carriage fees is not the way to increase ARPU and they don't support dishtv's carriage fee demand and everyone said dishtv charges too much.

 

[IndianMascot]

Might be but what i told was 2 month old scenario. So, its the latest.

 

[DashMajor]

I think right now d2h is charging more as they keep removing channels without thinking its negative reaction.

 

[IndianMascot]

Yes. It clearly shows that they are charging higher than Dish TV and ADTV. So, channels are getting removed on d2h and making place on these 2 DTH.

But with these new regulations, channels will have to pay same amount and that will be decided in DTH Association meeting headed by Dish TV CEO
