RS 153 for 100 channel ( either FTA or paid channel, we can choose as per our choice)

Bro, if free channels are selected then there is no extra charge.
But if Pay channel is selected in the 100 channel list then along with NCF- Rs.153 have to pay the cost of channel or bouquets selected + GST for the selected channel price (or) Bouquet channel price also.

It's misleading bro.. you have to add pay channel prices also to 154₹ NCF
Ex: if you choose 25DD channels(mandatory)+ 65FTA+10pay channels(each of ₹10)
Your bill will be:= 154₹(NCF+Tax)+10(channels)*11.8(price of each channel+tax)= 272₹

Anyhow we have been screwed by TRAI

Never rely on news particularly on technical issues regarding policy, go to the main source

Yes. If any channel is added over and above your calculation, the cost of channel+ tax and NCF+tax for the next slab also be paid since the channel count exceeded 100. Right?
