With the Broadcasters wanting to retain status quo on New Tariff Order (NTO) while the Cable Operators and other stakeholders like Reliance JIO wanting a price reduction, the industry regulator TRAI seems to have fixed the Judgment day as 2nd or 3rd week of November.
TRAI’s Chairman RS Sharma, on the sidelines of the open house discussion on the subject in New Delhi, revealed that the modified set of rules on NTO is set for launch in the next 20-25 days, in-order to increase transparency in the pricing of television channels.
