Seeking Help Which FTA Box is more suitable to buy today for future?

[Shark]

Local shopkeeper selling for 1600 with installation
DishTV - 1636 with 126 cashback but they are delivering no installation whereas I was surprised to know that it'll work without realignment.

Believe me, installation is must and your dish will not get any signal without Realignment.
DishTV satellite available at 95°E and Tata Play available at 83°E. There are more than 10° diffrence between them.

After discussing with you guys I've tweeted tagging DishTV yesterday and received call today they also mentioned same. So, will cancel this order when it come on doorstep.
Already, placed order with local shopkeeper. Yesterday at first I went to his shop only and he asked me 1600 rupees, he was the only one having this box while later visited many other shops too. Either they stopped DTH distribution or their agent were charging 2000 rupees.

So, finally after discussing here about which FTA STB would be better for my need. I've purchased Zing Super FTA HD box.

Accessories Received -

Remote
Adaptor
Aux cable
No HDMI cable
No batteries were included but later refund was initiated by the distributor.

Cost - Purchased from local distributor and it cost 1600 including installation and paid 100 for first Shagun recharge of 101 which gives additional balance of 25 making total 126.

See the amount which you'll spend on subscription of SHI pack + NCF is way more higher in Zing Super FTA HD.

some hindi movies channel on ala carte

And, on that these channel price + NCF will be added so better go with SunDirect HD and enjoy your desired channels.
Note, SunDirect is not having many of rest of India regional news channels.
So,choose accordingly.
Hack : If you can arrange old ADTV box, you can get Airtel Bachat for 36M at 1299 which will bring NCF at 36/month.
