NDTV is well-placed to ensure that NDTVProfit and the proposed channel are distributed widely with only a modest increase in carriage fee.
NDTV's brand equity is likely to ensure a superior geographical spread in the distribution of its channels; this would be a crucial advantage, as cable-connected homes are now placed at 60 million and set to expand sharply.
NDTV's revenues are likely to get a boost from subscription revenues as two of its channels NDTV 24x7 and NDTVProfit are on a pay basis and distributed through the Sony bouquet, which has an attractive set of channels.
