Springtide Infotainment Media, the joint venture (JV) between Times Group and Vice Media, plans to launch the TV channel Viceland in the second half of the calendar year 2018.
The company is awaiting ministry of information and broadcasting’s (MIB) permission to launch the channel. Springtide has applied for two channel licences namely Info Now and Info Now HD in February 2018.
The MIB is not issuing any licences for the last few months since it is in the process of overhauling the uplinking and downlinking guidelines. It had even sought the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India’s (TRAI) recommendations on the new guidelines. The TRAI has also issued its recommendations on the matter.
