Tata Sky CEO hails digitisation

Tata Sky managing director and CEO Harit Nagpal, has taken stock of 2013 and has said in a recent interview that digitisation has hugely helped the DTH industry. He has also noted that this form of new regulation is what the television industry had been waiting for all this time.
Nagpal in a recent interview to IndianTelevision.com, noted, “2013 was what we had been waiting for years. It was strange that in a country like India where everything is regulated, there was one full unregulated industry that required government intervention. People developed cold feet when the process of digitisation began but after the first round took place both the industry and government were confident that it has to be and can be done.”
Nagpal further said that Tata Sky is preparing for just as big a year in 2014 as it plans on rolling out a slew of new products and services. He said, “The biggest advantage of DTH is that consumers can choose their pack and pay for it. At Tata Sky, we’ve had a very good year, in terms of total turnover, profits, growth rate, churn, average revenue per user (ARPU) etc. In every aspect, we are leading. The new year will have newer services and technology being introduced.”
