List updated with Aaj Tak HD on Airtel. DDF Exclusive - Aaj Tak HD added by ADTV HD channel comparison across all Indian DTHs (UNEDITABLE).pptx
P.S. It has been a long time since Akshay (@zaxotes) updated his table. Waiting for him.

List updated with the addition of the two remaining Times HD channels on Dish TV. I am assuming there is NO Dolby audio on these channels. Now only HBO HD is missing in the English movie genre on Dish TV. I hope it is readded soon as it is absolutely unacceptable not to have it.
Breaking News - 2 HD channels added by Dish TV

Can anyone update this list? Has Sony Marathi HD launched and what about the new ETV HD channels?

• I have updated my list as Tata Sky has added Jaya HD. @zaxotes has not updated his list in months, so please look at my PowerPoint presentation in the given link. HD channel comparison across all Indian DTHs (UNEDITABLE).pptx
• SPN has still not got the licence for Sony Marathi HD whereas Viacom18 and Star are getting tons of new licences. The MIB is biased against Sony, I think. Sony Marathi HD was available on SonyLIV for some time but I cannot see it any more.
• Not a single DTH has added the four new ETV HD channels.

Among them, India News HD was testing but they cancelled the plan & converted it to another India News channel. Big Magic HD is in testing mode but never launched & chances are there that it'll never launch & the rest are available only in SD & they've not applied for any HD license.

Ok. Thanks. Any idea which HD channels are awaiting license?
