Dish CEO seeks rollout of Trai recommendation on reducing DTH licensing fee

The government should immediately implement sectoral regulator Trai’s recommendation to reduce the licensing fee from the current 8 per cent to 3 per cent of Adjusted Gross Revenue (AGR), said Dish TV CEO Manoj Dobhal on Thursday.

He urged the Ministry of Information & Broadcasting (MIB) to act swiftly as it can drive long-term sustainability and growth of the DTH industry, which is currently struggling.
