TRAI should remove price restriction on channels to compete with OTTs and reduce channel subscription margin from 20% to 5% for service providers/DTH to compensate price increase to customer.1stly restriction of Rs. 19 on A La Carte channel pricing applies only to channels which r to be made available as part of Broadcaster Bouquets too otherwise there is no such price limit.
About other things i have already answered all these questions earlier in various threads so please refer to it, buddy u were also part of many of such discussions still instead of understanding what i said u keep asking same questions .
Also subscription revenue has grown and so has ad revenue for most broadcasters, some dip in subscriber base or ad revenue in few cases is bcoz of various other factors and not NTO.
Also in Pre NTO era there were many issues including that of transparency + fairness towards all operators and in Post NTO era both broadcasters and operators stand to gain if right policies r adopted / correct decisions r taken + above all customers get choice to opt for their favorite channels but sadly flawed pricing/packaging of channels by broadcasters has lead to issues.
