NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Monday asked the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) to complete the exercise of fixing tariffs for cable
TV operators in non-conditional access system (CAS) areas by June 30, 2010.
A three-judge bench headed by chief justice KG Balakrishnan also asked the regulator to take into account the plea of broadcasters, multi system operators (MSOs) and all stakeholders in the matter of fixation of such tariff.
TRAI, in its application filed through counsel Sanjay Kapur, had sought time to complete the exercise of such tariff fixation. It had said, the delay was due to repeated extensions of time sought by stakeholders on furnishing information necessary for fixation of tariff for cable services in non-CAS areas.
