in avadi,padi,anna nagar area Digital STB at 500 only ,arasu cable issue the stb by local cable operator at low coast but unofficially.
Hi, i'm from <area name removed>. And i called my cable guy to get the Arasu STB sooner for all my TV's, he said that Arasu cable wont come as they have not even procured the STB and also have issues with tender, no clear price on STB as the 500 is just the advance and not the full payment, subscription cost and many other things so they are going to distribute SCV STB before 20th OCT and wont go with Arasu cable.
I said i shall wait and dont want to hurry.
Also please check this,
“The supply of 10000 STBs within 3 weeks, 1 Lakh STBs within 6
weeks, and the remaining STBs within 4 months from the date of issue of
LOA in the initial phase”

Chennai needs atleast 40 lakh STB whereas Arasu can supply only 10,000 which is no where the need and also cant supply atleast 10% within 6 weeks....
also try this,

May be in will go with DTH instead of going with SCV.
