Tariff Order: Tata Sky withdraws contempt plea against TRAI

Tata Sky on Wednesday withdrew its contempt petition against the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India ( TRAI) for implementing the tariff order, after the Delhi High Court said that there was no case of contempt against TRAI.

Briefing about the court order, TRAI’s counsel Saket Singh told exchange4media, “The court said that this is not a case of contempt. They (Tata Sky) should move an appropriate application for stay, after which Tata Sky withdrew its petition and sought permission to file a fresh application.”

Tariff Order: Tata Sky withdraws contempt plea against TRAI
 
MUMBAI: Direct to home (DTH) operator Tata Sky is most likely to file an application against Telecom Regulatory Authority of India’s (TRAI) press release dated 3 July informing about the implementation of tariff order, interconnection regulations, and quality of service (QoS) norms.The DTH operator had earlier filed a contempt petition against the TRAI’s press release. However, the petition was withdrawn as the Delhi High Court said that there is no case of contempt.The DTH operator withdrew the petition saying it will file a separate application against the TRAI press release. The High Court granted it the liberty to do so.It is pertinent to note that Tata Sky and Bharti Telemedia (Airtel Digital TV) have challenged the QoS norms of the new regulatory framework prescribed by the TRAI. That matter is listed for hearing on 19 July.

Star india definitely don't support this because they aren't satisfied with current system. Sony also will play against it.
 
Again the matter is listed in SC on 18th September 18. Most of the DPO had complied with the 3rd July order except Star on declaring MRP of channels..
