Basically paid channel rates would be decided by broadcaster instead of dth or cable provider.
Access fee would be chargeable for both pay n free channels @ Rs.130 per channels max by dth/lco. Gst extra.
So you'll pay max of Rs.130(may vary in each dth) for 100channels + whatever pay channels fees(same in all) + gst
Acc. to TRAI its move to make things more easier for customers.
However insiders know its to make it easier for Jio to launch gigafiber iptv service. as jio would give all fta channels free and pay tv customer can select as no dth/lco can't give it below broadcaster rio fees. so win win for jio.
While dth would earn max of Rs.130 + 20% of pay channels commission. Jio would charge for broadband instead as voice is already free.
