I am saving a lot per month (more than rs200 per month) after the new TRAI scheme. All my relatives and friends i know have saved. Ofcourse the saving amount has varied. Only those with multi tv connections seem to have lost out. BTW i am on Airtel Dth.
All those who are cribbing seem to be the ones who have calculated the pricing for all the channels they used to "get" on their TV forgetting the basic fact that they actually watched only 10-15 of them on regular basis.
Also instead of adding up the alacarte pricing of individual pay channels, one should look at the broadcaster packs wherever possible.
On quora someone has mentioned a website
www.createmypack.com to create cost effective custom packs. I have not used it myself. Will do and check if i can save more.
