Yeah, that's why I said, currently. And I'm sure Airtel will come up with lucrative plans not only for Multi-TV, but also for Primary.

Not charging NCF on secondary alone should be pretty much enough to provide the discount IMO. No need to absorb any channel cost discount. Need to do some calculations though. We all know TS is not that stupid to absorb so much cost themselves and benefit customers.

I read many posts in tata sky section that they r calculating multi tv cost slab only on basis of total pay channel subscription amount on primary stb, NCF isn't included for this purpose. It surprised me too. :)
 
Ncf price is not reduced.

After removing all my active bouquets still my NFC is 153 only for fta channels.

See the screenshot

There was a misunderstanding that NCF is reduced. It's only reduced for secondary connection. Read all the posts it'll be clear.

By the way, airtel has not yet released the muti tv policy officially & regarding plans they've clearly said that they're in process of launching more packs of less price.
 
They will get 20% of pay chs subscription anyway

Arre bro, if they give all channels on multi tv without keeping any profit margin then won't their revenue slide down? Look if one has subscribed to Rs. 200 worth of pay channels on primary then in this case tata sky is charging Rs. 150 for multi tv subscription. Giving 50 discount means forfeiting 20% share from DRP/MRP + even small part of inventive they will get on basis of reach and placement of channels. Has tata sky turned so generous?

You are missing broadcasters discount. Multitv mean more penetration so dpo is elligible for 40% discount on broadcasting MRP. So star 49 pack cost 49 for primary connection but it costs 20 I guess for multiple connection.

It's like getting discount when you order in bulk numbers. Regarding ts financial out of 200 they will get 40 for each connection + 130 ncf.

Brother 40% broadcaster discount is given by no one. Channel penetration and placement discount is not more than 10 or 15% max in total. Last i checked on Star website this was the case. Plus there r many parameters to be met and near impossible to get max benefit for any operator
