Jio DTH vs others

Punters say the DTH service would be so cheap that it would disrupt the sector

The stock markets are agog with rumour of the imminent launch of Reliance Jio’s direct-to-home TV services. Punters say the DTH service would be so cheap that it would disrupt the business model of the existing players. Whether Reliance launches a service like that or not, punters are using the rumour to pull down the shares of the rival companies. “After telecom, this (Jio DTH) is the right stick to hit a DTH player,” said a punter. Hope DISH and SUN TV are listening.
