TRAI asks DTH firm Independent TV to justify tariff plans

Broadcast regulator TRAI has written to DTH operator Independent TV (formerly known as Big TV) asking it to justify its current tariff plans in the backdrop of the sector’s new regulatory framework.

In a letter to Independent TV, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has also called a meeting with the senior official of the DTH company on the said matter, Tuesday.

The regulator flagged the issue after it received several consumer complaints over lack of clarity on tariff plans and their break-up details for monthly charges, a TRAI source said.
