Bro as mentioned they will be the next to get the permission.

When did I said they got the permission..

In the next meeting they will surely get it.. Wait till that time.. ?

hmm :k bro, we have to wait then.... but the time frame for which they've been deferred is also unknown.
There is no guarantee bro. Here's one example for u:

NDTV to bring KidsCo channel to India | Business Standard

So, far KidsCO hasnt been given a downlink license.:s

deferred doesnt mean its rejected, Its just postponed same way like other proposels.

bro, you see anything stopping HBO from downlinking channels in India.

It's been already said my Siddharth Jain and others they are looking to increase there presence after the sucess of HBO Premium.

Bro Its HBO I don't see anything stopping them.. ?

 

[NinadG]

these international channels know how to get fast approvals so I think HBO will...

 

[shawl_who]

So, if they were HBO, why it was deferred in the first place, who was stopping them so far. :lol

 

[DestinyAwaits]

Bro there is a limit to approve no. Of approvals in a day..

Wait for the next meet you will see they will be approved..

It seems they are going to bring more premium channels as per HBO they see the subscription model will succeed in India after the success of HBO Premium and it may also include a kid premium channel as well. I'm not sure but recent interviews of Turner India, Siddharth Jain it should come.. Let see how it goes.

I hope the next meet of FIPB is soon and we get a Good News..
