dear friends,
As per latest information DD DTH charging carriage fees 60 lakhs(25 lakhs),about dish
tv charging 25 lakhs, sun dth ??? how much no body knows,,for their popularity they add popular channels in tamil package,,see in big tv kalignar tv in seperate pack in south popular pack, becuse big tv charging 50 % of carrige fee compare to DD Dth, balance they will get it from customer..so,understand all dth and broadcaters are very much about commercial terms,,jaya plus paying carriage fees and it is added in tamil package,,,i think they are not ready to pay for jaya max,,as per interconnection norms broadcasters has to pay carriage fee if it is free to air channel,if paY CHANNEL 50 % of price in non cas areas has to be paid by dth operator,
reg vijay and raj tv they are charging rs 6 and 2.5 for their channels to sun dth,,but sun dth givig this channel free(or basic price of 77),so they are loosing 8.5 rs per subscriber for tamil packsge and also loose their profit of balance 50%..
al will possible if both dth operator & broadcaster go in break even,,as per sun dth they will break even after 1 yr
🙁
once customer base increase abnormally ( 5 to 6 million in 2009 to 2010)means they will get profit in 2 to 3 year time...u shoud notice that all dth operator r not making profits all r running under loosers
