Tata Play to use GSAT-24 satellite for its DTH services

Tata Play collaborated with NSIL (NewSpace India Limited) to launch GSAT-24 satellite in June 2022. Tata Play will commence the use of this satellite, now in its orbital position, starting August 7. The company said in a statement that the increased bandwidth will enable Tata Play to provide its users with an “even sharper picture and sound quality, and an ability to carry 50% more channels while becoming the largest satellite bandwidth provider among all DTH platforms.” NSIL, incorporated in March 2019, is a Central Public Sector Enterprise (CPSE) under the Department of Space (DOS) and is the commercial arm of DOS.
