AIDCF has urged the government to reduce GST on Cable TV services from to 5%.
A rationalisation of GST will:
✅ Ease the burden on consumers
✅ Support cable operators & preserve lakhs of jobs
✅ Provide a level playing field with competing platforms

The All India Digital Cable Federation (@AIDCF_IN) has written to Union Minister of Information and Broadcasting Ashwini Vaishnaw and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharam seeking urgent reduction of GST on cable TV services from the existing 18% slab to 5%.
By @journoImran…
There is constant debate around DD Free Dish & AIDCF has consistently highlighted the issues of:
⚠️Unverifiable Reach
⚠️Unfair Competition
⚠️Ad Market Distortions
It's high time that TRAI's July 2024 recommendations are implemented!

TRAI push or industry pressure: Why is DD Free Dish facing calls for reforms?
Stakeholders warn that unencrypted, non-addressable growth of the platform distorts competition, fuels piracy & undermines regulatory intent, even as @prasarbharati defends its free-to-air mandate.…
Noting that linear TV still remains the heartbeat of Indian entertainment, Former Union I&B Minister @ianuragthakur called for deregulating India’s TV sector.
Could easing regulations be the catalyst to revive Cable TV and strengthen its role in the digital era?

MIB's DTH license fee reduction will be a death warrant for India's cable TV sector!
880 MSOs, 1.6 lakh LCOs, 10+ lakh jobs being put at stake to benefit just 4 DTH giants!

We earnestly urge the Hon'ble Ministry (@MIB_India) to uphold a balanced, competitive, and inclusive broadcasting ecosystem, and ensure that no segment of the distribution sector is unfairly disadvantaged.
@PMOIndia @narendramodi @AshwiniVaishnaw @DrLMurugan @sjaju1
📢 AIDCF has submitted a formal representation to the Hon’ble @MIB_India, strongly opposing @TRAI's recommendation to reduce, and eventually waive, the license fee for DTH operators.
