MUMBAI: The direct to home (DTH) sector in India heading for a consolidation phase. After Dish TV-Videocon d2h merger, Tata Group and Bharti Enterprises are exploring merger of their DTH businesses. The DTH merger talk comes in the wake of merger of the consumer telecom businesses of the two companies. Besides merging the two companies, Airtel is also considering merging Airtel Digital TV with Tata Sky. According to CNBC TV18, the talks have entered due diligence stage and would take at least a couple of months before being finalised.

If the merger talks fructify, it will create another distribution behemoth which will rival the size of Dish TV-Videocon d2h combine.
