DTH license of Independent TV pivots on the payment of spectrum charges’ dues to DoT
Earlier known as Reliance Big TV, Independent TV DTH has suffered nine times losses in the current fiscal year in comparison to last year. Due to this, there has been a steady erosion of its paid subscribers and pay channels opting out due to non-payment of dues. As on 28th November 2018, direct-to-home (DTH) License application by Independent TV will be considered by the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (MIB) only after it has cleared its spectrum dues to the Department of Telecom (DoT). Independent TV has so far deposited an amount of Rs 3.74 crores approximately on 31st October which needs to be confirmed by the DoT. Pending spectrum charges along with late fees amount to Rs.3.16 crores approximately to be paid by DTH operator, Independent TV. This was in response to their affidavit filed on their status on 13th November. Also, the pending transponder charges have been paid by Independent TV but both the payments will be confirmed in next hearing by the tribunal. Another two weeks, on 18th December, have been given to the operator with respect to pending dues and its application for grant of license in its name.
