Trai challenges TDSAT order over cable tariff ceiling

Regulator, Trai moved the Supreme Court challenging the TDSAT order that rejected its tariff order proposing to put a ceiling on cable services charges across the country.

Earlier TDSAT had observed that the regulator, Trai had violated principles of transparency through the tariff order passed in October 2007. Trai meanwhile claims that the order which was in existence for more than a year should be continued since it was observed that it had been successfully implemented.

Trai’s counsel, Harish Salve said that the tariff order provided protection to about 80 million households in a very transparent and reasonable manner by stipulating ceilings on the monthly cable TV charges.

Trai says that if the TDSAT order to reject the ceiling is executed it will lead to 30 million households being at the mercy of the service providers as far as tariff is concerned.
