The most crucial reason behind the entry of almost all DTH services in
India is the digitization of Cable TV Services and the TRAI Specification for
Digitization. With the Government of India passing a rule to replace cable TV
by set top boxes in four major metro cities of India, every cable user in these
cities started seeking DTH services. Slowly, the DTH advantages of DTH services
reached to subscribers in other parts of nation which led to the evolution of
set top boxes and DTH service providers all over India. Ever wondered what this
digitization of cable TV actually means?

by set up box technology for better cable TV quality and the subscribers were
asked to buy a set up box from the providers of DTH services for receiving

cable TV in entire country till 31st December 2012.
