hi there,
i stay in an apartment complex of 45 high end dwelling with approximately 125 TVs and all of us are on Tatasky, HD, + ,
And in our last association meeting we decided to explore other dth and cable operators for our complex hence most of the residents are unhappy about the number of channels being provided and the delay in rolling out new channels. hence on behalf of our community i spoke to a senior management guy of tatasky in Bangalore( One of the residents in our dwelling is a close friend of this person)..he informed me the following.....

1. ISRO has not handed over the GSAT10 TPs to Tatasky as Sun Group has raised objections to the same being handed before DAS roll out is complete..threatening law suit. please recall High court of Karnataka had stayed DAS roll out in two cities in Karnataka namely Bangalore and Mysore( which was of course dismissed yesterday)
Hence he says soon the TPs will be handed over to Tatasky and channels will be rolled out soon....

2.Tatasky shall be swapping Mpeg -2 STBs with Mpeg4 or Compatible STB's beginning May2nd week, as tatasky is migrating to Mpeg-4 compression soon.

3. he has asked us to wait 30 days before we decide to churn/migrate some other operator as there will be lot of things happening in tatasky in next 30 days. and he has agreed to meet us in our next association meeting personally....to impress upon us to stay with tatasky.

I am not fully sure the above mentioned facts are entirely true or feasible.....until unless this gentleman visits our premises in our next meeting

May be the experts in the forum can wet/research and rightfully comment to enlighten us all with true facts... :thumbsup:

I think You are only of the lucky fellow who has got the real and actual news why Tata sky is delaying in terms of GSAT 10.

But why would SUN object? What's their benefit ig Tata sky is deprived of its satellite.

Also, only with money power, it's hard to trouble a big company like Tata. After all Harit Nagpal, CEO of Tata sky is chairman of DTH association too.

i was told that the sun group too had some contact with ISRO for acquiring TP's in one of their satelites, and some clauses from contracts of yester years or recent ly when sun too was dependent on ISRO....may this goodfellow throw light on all issues once he comes to our association meeting...

end of the day we are just wishing to put an end to this suffering our community is going thru either by churning to some other operator or tatasky shuld pull up their socks and deliver....

I have heard that MSOs were pressurizing govt through their minister to delay digitization. Some political parties even threatened DTH operators into their office not to run any campaign against cable operators. Tata sky and Videocon were forced to withdraw their ad campaign against cable walas.

But Sun role still remain doubtful. But we have to trust the words of this guy who told you all these info.

After your post, again some hopes seems to be arising that something gonna happen in Tata Sky within a month.

Tata sky was clear that now concentrating on south region is main reason that sun group get in action. Also there is bad history between both tata sky and sun group.

With tata sky an ultimatum of 1 month becomes 12 times. So surely what you are saying can happen but not before 17th april 2014.

they not given official timing for channel launches, its a general prediction. Till C- band transmission also not started hence satellite is till on ISRO level not a part of insat system.
