Breaking Airtel in advanced talks to buy Tata Play

[Ashok Varma]

Cool down buddy ! I see u get very excited each time somehow trying to see each thing related to Airtel from a negative perspective / prism


Reality is that now onwards Airtel might be planning to provide hybrid IPTV cum DTH boxes to regular customers hence maybe regular HD STB r being discontinued though again there is no official statement on the same.

Also XStream Boxes need no upgrade to receive IPTV channels as same will be madr available via App

Are all poor people can buy xstream box / iptv box for their TVs without internet? Airtel will do something (merge/sell) after clearing HD boxes, wait and see...

yes , this usually happens when company is planning to exit..... before selling to Airtel they r acquiring remaining stake owned by other entities so that when agreement is signed with Airtel then deal undergoes smooth transition

So why has ADTV stopped procurement of HD STB ??? Pls read and tell everyone.

Dude IPTV boxes r not costly, they wil cost same as HD boxes so don't worry.... This is a smart strategy by Airtel which shall help them garner max subscribers in both DTH and IPTV segment, regular customers will get option to watch channels via IPTV too incase of no signal on DTH bcoz of weather related or other reasons

Lastly XStream Box new connection costs just Rs. 1500 and above all its is provided free too with various offers run by Airtel so don't worry Airtel too knows how to cater to different segment of customers.

Ur wish of Airtel selling its DTH business is nothing but ur wrong analysis/decoding of the information shared by @Vadirocks anna

They still doesn't own Disney was intrested to sell On May 2024 but Tata Play said they're not interested to acquire those 30% Disney so Currently after Star Viacom18 Merger. Reliance have 15% whereas Viacom18 n Disney have rest 15% Shares .

So AIrtel might sell/merge its DTH to Tata play, moves its fiber/airfiber users to iptv or its a glitch in DTH. @dino29 will shocks

Don't Go Too Much Off The Track!

Expect the unexpected:
My expectation: Airtel going to merge it's DTH operation with Tata play after shifting of it's fiber users to iptv

One update related to Airtel IPTV I have shared on the OTF thread.

Link: IPTV Services To Start By Airtel For Fiber/AirFiber Customers

Note: Let's keep the Airtel IPTV related discussions over OnlyTech forums as previously said.

Bro! Need A Clarification

Ad Per ZH Airtel's IPTV STB Won't Be Hybrid!

Can't Connect To Dish, In That Case, Updates Should Be Post On OTF Only Right?
