Default CNBC channels will be charged now..!!!!

Hi Guys....CNBC TV 18 and CNBC Awaz channels are not out of the Maxi package and will be provided as add on.This mean the customer will have to pay Rs.25 per month to view these.

Another point is that Dish TV did not inform about this in any manner.I just came to know this when I discussed this with Dish TV CC.

As per their Dish TV sites it seems that will now start charging for Ten Sports as well..

CNBC channels in india are joint venture between CNBC network and TV 18 Network India.

CNBC TV 18 is the leading English business news channel in India.CNBC Awaaz is its Hindi counterpart which also focuses on consumer affairs.

I feel that it will not be long when DishTv starts bundling add-on packages. A-la-carte package in form of TV5Monde and Topper already exists.

My DishTV connection is paid till 31-Dec. I will decide what to next year and depending upon the situation then.

Actually CNBC Awaaz is one of the better news channels.

Its a shame it will be charged as an add on, as its a news channel and should be included in the packages with all the other news channels.
