Discussion TRAI announced important changes in the Tariff Order

[Rajat Basak]

DPO=Distribution platform operator. It distributes channels to our home. It includes all dth,mso,etc.
MSO=Multi System operator. So many small cable operators take channels from MSO. MSO can also directly provide channels to customer thus acting as cable operator..

So all DPOs are MSO and DTH operators right?

Oh no, they don't want the loot to stop.
The wolves are coming together and crying and the media will give them attention and sympathy as always.
Hopefully TRAI bulldozes the latest amendments through.

They might tell that after implementing NTO, advertising was decreased and depends more on subscription revenue and against amendments by TRAI for price restrictions on bouquets and reducing MRP of a la carte pay channel, which are in bouquet.

Ofcourse it is. Trai ruined everything just like telecom sector.. Trai also refused to lower the prices of 5G spectrum.. They are also going to review net neutrality..

foreign companies gave our country only fraudness and pain.In 1995 I purchased colour tv of texla till today it is in running condition.cell of wall clocks and tubelights never ended before three years.But today everything is full temporary.purchase the product,come out from shop and your money,product and shopkeeper-customer relation finished

I don't think TRAI will help consumers in future.it has diverted from its aim which was to keep secure consumers rights from loot of companies.

All mistake of TRAI confusion. Should hv implemented NTO in full last year or at first they should have cleared confusion regarding judgement then implement full NTO. On pretext of conclusion TRAI colluded with broadcasters.. now result is today

My view/curiosity;

1) Why broadcaster launched prolonged festival offer @ Rs 12, just to fool TRAI and disguise consumers, when they realized that TRAI is looking for amendments and influence the process.
2) Lower NCF is counter productive, as with lower NCF, Broadcaster will never reduce tariffs as they want to eat all slices of cake. They are not doing any charity.
3) With the new amendments, no one is stopping them to keep prices of premium channels at higher level. There is no cap. Problem is that they want to bundle useless and non popular channels through bouquet thereby limiting the choice and enticing consumers to go for a bouquet.

Broadcasters can easily turn new amendments in their favor with fewer channels and smart pricing. Sony Happy India pack @39 is a classic example where they don't need to change almost anything.

12 months too late. Now even Zee has accepted it that NTO is a bad idea.
