gsat 8, 24 ku band launched for dd direct but failed
gsat10, 12 ku band launched for tatasky but again failed.

isro has failed to give transponders to local dth operators now every dth trusting only foreign satellites .
 
UPDATE :

GSAT-7 satellite placed in
geosynchronous orbit.

India's advanced multi-band
communication satellite GSAT-7,
launched from French Guiana by
European space consortium
Arianespace's Ariane 5 rocket on
August 30, has been successfully
placed in the geosynchronous orbit
with an altitude of about 36,000 km
above earths surface.
Indian Space Research Organisation
successfully completed the last of
the three orbit-raising manoeuvres
commanded from ISRO's Master
Control Facility at Hassan in
Karnataka yesterday, the space
agency said in a statement.
The communication antennae of
GSAT-7, including the UHF Helix
antenna, were deployed successfully.
Following this, GSAT-7 was put in its
final orbital configuration and
stabilised on its three-axis by the
momentum wheels.
The GSAT-7 would reach its assigned
orbital slot of 74 degree east
longitude in the geostationary orbit
within the next 10 days, the
Bangalore-headquartered ISRO said.
On September 14, the
communication transponders in UHF,
S, C and Ku bands are planned to be
switched on, it said.
 
GSAT-7 Satellite Placed in Geosynchronous Orbit.

The current orbital parameters of GSAT-7 are:
Parameter (Unit) Value
Perigee (km) 35475
Apogee (km) 35791
Inclination (deg) 0.2
Orbital Period 23 hr 48 minutes
 
not yet operational but its now in Geosynchronous Orbit.

The GSAT-7 Satellite would reach its assigned orbital slot of 74 degree East longitude in the Geostationary Orbit within the next 10 days. On September 14, 2013, the communication transponders in UHF, S, C and Ku bands are planned to be switched on.
