The dispute has erupted between multi-system operator (MSOs) Hathway Cable & Datacom and India’s biggest sports network Star Sports India, as the Hathway Cable decided to put the Star sport channel on a la carte in DAS Phase II cities.
The DAS Phase II deal between Hathway and Star Sports ends on 31 March. Hathway is already offering Star Sports channels on a la carte in DAS Phase I cities.
Star Sports offers four standard-definition (SD) channels including Star Sports 1, Star Sports 2, Star Sports 3, and Star Sports 4, and two high-definition (HD) channels such as Star Sports HD1 and Star Sports HD2. The four SD channels are available at Rs. 15 per channel on Hathway.
Hathway Cable & Datacom MD and CEO Jagdish Kumar stated, “We have decided to put Star Sports channels on RIO as it will help us in managing our content costs. As it is, sport is a seasonal property and is largely event driven.”
