Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) chairman RS Sharma has said “By introducing a low-priced MRP regime, we want people to make informed choice about the channels that they want to watch — either from the free channels portfolio or from the paid stack."
TRAI has assured all consumers that even if they fail to select the pay channels, there won’t be any blackout of TV channels, and the FTA or Free to Air channels will continue to be broadcast.
All consumers will be anyways switched into Rs 130 basic plan, under which they will receive 100 SD channels. Gradually, as per TRAI, consumers will be able to select their channels themselves and pay for only those channels which they want to watch.
Justifying that the new regulations will help consumers to bring down their monthly expenses, RS Sharma said, “Through bouquets, the broadcasters and cable distributors such as DTH companies and cable operators were pushing too many channels on the people.”
As per TRAI, an average household only watched 50 channels in a month, and by this logic, the overall expenses has to come down after February 1st.
