They could have thought of IPO. Don’t know what happened to that
They were running because of Foreign investments after Temasek Exit they're running in loss because of no investments or Future plans . Also Disney not willing to keep the 30% share they're looking for selling it . After Airtel offer they must have dropped the plan on July for IPO. Airtel is in Talks with Tata Play from past few Months its almost on a final discussion and announcements must be soon.

One benefit would be both companies use same/similar technologies for their DTH operations, so unifiying it into ONE would not be much of an issue.

Even if the acquisition does go ahead, i would like them to incorporate some of the good things TP is providing be it CC support, no lock in for ala-carte channels or packs, JSAT Offers, etc

Else it would be a loss for the end TP customer.

Also, unlimited free pause and resume facility for subscription.

Yes, they are bending rules to approve anything. An organization failing to perform its most basic task of promoting competition and preventing monopolies
Like PVR/INOX and Disney Star/Viacom18, this merger is between the two biggest players in the industry, not between smaller players. At least this merger won’t be as disastrous as Vodafone Idea or Dish TV/d2h, which may be a reason why only successful companies’ mergers are being approved and not struggling ones.
 
Actually Tatasky is brand of India but now it's Tataplay not sky...
It is the best time to Tata "Exist" from DTH business and everything under Airtel sure they will rock.
True...... Until Sky was their partner they had great tech innovations, good product quality and even transmission quality was lot good....since Sky exited i feel Tata was not able to continue with same level of tech brilliance hence we have seen things going downhill from that point on

It's acquisition not merging bro
Complete quit of tata by by
 
I hope they don't remove jingalala offers 😢
merged entity could be named as Airtel AirPLAY
Remember this post by me bro
So earlier this year airtel digital tv had renamed many of their Value Added Services /Service Channels and these names were similar to what Tata Play had, now on December 30 2024 they again reverted back to old names of many of these channels and changed to other names for others....while service channels like toons , darshan were also renamed ......was just thinking why they did so also what was the reason for earlier renaming certain service channels similar to Tata Play

Previously too indications started appearing both companies discussing upon some merger or takeover so keep looking for such changes as it many times helps decode what can be possible outcome :)
