The Ministry of Information & Broadcasting (MIB),
which did not grant any TV channel licence in October, has
issued three non-news licences in November.
The ministry has also cancelled one licence, that of of Navda Creations. It has restored five TV licences of Mahuaa Media and four of STV Enterprises.
Sony Pictures Networks India (SPNI) has received downlinking licence for Sony Pix 2. The other two recipient of licences are Yelamanchili TV for Yone TV and Sri Venkateswara Bhakti Channel for SVBC 2.
Yone TV, which is the first complete Telugu web TV channel,
has expanded to cable TV. It will now launch as a satellite
channel.
Currently, Sri Venkateswara Bhakti Channel owns and operates Spiritual channel Sri Venkateswara Bhakti Channel (SVBC).
With three new licences issued, one cancelled and nine
restored, the number of permitted TV channel licences has
gone up to 892, as on 25 November. In October, the number of permitted TV channels stood at 881.
The number of news channels has moved up to 406 from 399 while that of non-news channels has increased to 486 from 482.
The number of cancelled TV channel licences went down to
153 from 161 in the previous month.
A total of 1045 private TV channel licences have been granted as on 25 November 2016 compared to 1,042 a month ago.
