Television in India
The history of Indian television dates back to the launch of doordarshan, Indiasnational TV network in 1959. The transmission was in black & white. The 9 th Asiangames which were held in 1982 in the countrys capital New Delhi heralded the mark ofcolor TV broadcasting in India. In 1991, Indian economy was liberalized from theLicense Raj and major initiatives like inviting foreign direct investments, deregulation ofdomestic business emerged. This lead to the in flux of foreign channels like Star TV andcreation of domestic satellite channels like Sun TV and Zee TV. This virtually destroyedthe monopoly held by doordarshan. In 1992, the cable TV industry started which lead torevolution. Every city in the India had a complex web of co-axial cables running throughthe streets with a new breed of entrepreneurs called as cable wallahs or Local CableOperators(LCO) taking in charge of distribution. The film industry was shocked by this
sudden growth and there were even organized protests for calling off the Cable TVindustry. There were simply too many cable operators in the country and the channelshad a difficult time in getting its returns as the existing system was a non-addressableand the operators could simply give a reduced number of subscribers to amass profit.This lead to the emergency of a new breed of firms called as Multi System Operators(MSO) who had heavy financial muscles to make capital investments. . The MSO

industry became highly monopolistic which warrants government participation toensure competition. Later on, the United Front Government had issued a ban on use ofku band transmission. After a change of government, the ban got lifted finally in 2001and TRAI issued the guidelines for operating DTH. Countrys first private DTH license was awarded to Dish TV in 2003 which started operations in 2004. Prasar Bharati alsostarted its product DD-Direct+.DTH Digital TV system receives signals directly fromsatellite through the dish, decodesit with the Set-Top Box and then sends stunninglyclear picture and sound to TV which is the business under taken by some companies byobserving the rate of growth and scope for business & opportunity in the Indian market which has 120 million viewers of TV
DTH Industry Overview:
The Indian Direct-To-Home (DTH) market is expected to see its annual revenue growover three times to more than $ 5 billion by 2020, as mandatory cable TV digitisation would help the DTH players expand their subscriber base, a study has said.
DTH industry revenues will reach $ 3.9 billion by 2017 and $ 5.3 billion by 2020.Revenue growth will be largely driven by increasing subscriber volumes, Hong Kong - based research firm Media Partners Asia has said in a new report on the Indian DTHmarket.The Indian DTH industry is estimated to have clocked a revenue of about $ 1.5 billion in 2012.Media Partners Asia (MPA), an independent provider of informationservices focusing on media, communications and entertainment industries, further said

that the active DTH subscriber base is estimated to grow from 32.4 million in 2012 to63.8 million by 2017 and 76.6 million by 2020.MPA, however, added that the IndianDTH market faces several cost challenges moving forward.
With conflicting growth forecasts between content aggregators and DTH operators overthe active subscriber base, most of the content renewals from now on will likely be basedon a cost per subscriber (CPS) basis, rather than on a fixed rate.This will reduce the benefits from operating leverage that the industry previously enjoyed. Marketing andstaff expenses will remain high as the larger phases of DAS (digitisation of cable signals)roll- out gets underway, it added.As per the report, Indias DTH players made acollective effort in 2012 to improve the per-subscriber economics of the industry, withlaunch of more DTH packages and entry-level pricing. The active subscriber additionsin 2012 stood at a mere 3.7 million. This is alarming as the gap between gross and activesubscriber bases has widened substantially.As of end -2012, the cumulative DTH activesubscriber base stood at 32.4 million subscribers versus 28.7 million subscribers in2011As per the report, Dish TV continued to lead with a market share of 27 per cent interms of gross additions, while Videocon d2h led in terms of incremental adds in2012.Tata Sky and Airtel Digital TV have 19 per cent and 18 per cent market share,respectively. These four players together accounted for 88 per cent of total grossadditions in 2012.

CONCENTRATION RATIOConcentration ratio is a measure of the total output produced in an industry by a
given number of firms in the industry. The most common concentration ratios are theCR 4 and the CR 8, which means the market share of the four and the eight largest firms.Concentration ratios are usually used to show the extent of market control of the largestfirms in the industry and to illustrate the degree to which an industry is oligopolistic
CALCULATION DTH INDUSTRY 2013The concentration ratio is the percentage of market share held by the largest firms (m)in an industry.
CRm
= m
i=1 s
i
Therefore it can be expressed as:CR m = s 1 + s 2 + .... + s m where s i is the market share and m defines the i th firm
DTH CR = S1 + S2 + S3 + S427 + 19 + 19 + 1479
Medium concentration50% to 80%. An industry in this range is likely an oligopoly.
HERFINDHAL INDEX
Herfindahl index (also known as Herfindahl Hirschman Index , or HHI ) is ameasure of the size of firms in relation to the industry and an indicator of the amount ofcompetition among them. Named after economists Orris C. Herfindahl and Albert O.Hirschman, it is an economic concept widely applied in competition law, antitrust and
also technology management.It is defined as the sum of the squares of the marketShares of the 50 largest firms (or summed over all the firms if there are fewer than50)within the industry, where the market shares are expressed as fractions. The result isproportional to the average market share, weighted by market share. As such, it canrange from 0 to 1.0, moving from a huge number of very small firms to asingle monopolistic producer. Increases in the Herfindahl index generally indicate a

where s i is the market share of firm i in the market, and N is the number of firms
HHI = 27^2 + 19^2 +19^2 + 14^2 + 13^2 + 7^2 +1
HHI = 1866
A HHI index between 0.15 to 0.25 (or 1,500 to 2,500) indicates moderate concentration
EFFECT INCREASE OF PLAYERS
Each player is trying to overtake the other ( price, market share ,quality , tech) Market was monopoly in 2004, transited to oligopoly in 2010 Ultimate benefit to consumers
BARRIERS TO ENTRY AND EXIT
High setup cost The initial cost of setup for broadcaster is Hugh so this acts as a big entry barrier.
DTH is a low margin and high volume industry: DTH though is a lucrative business however it is a low margin and high volume
industry. For a new entrant to succeed it has to ensure that it builds customer base soon otherwise it will not be possible to make profit.
Cost of a set top boxes:

The cost of setup box installed in a home is still very high and the cost of a set top box is a significant entry barrier. Higher number of subscriber can bring downthe cost incrementally.
Pricing has to be competitive versus cable: For a new entrant to be successful it is going be very difficult as they entrant willto compete with local cable operators as well as existing DTH service provider.There are already established players in the market and the price war has alreadystarted.
Differentiation through content: There are hundreds of TV channels in India and as per the industry reports thereare close to 150+ channels waiting for approval, this take the numbers to 400different TV channels. So providing the right content to the right consumer willalso play a critical role in success of new entrant, differentiation through contentis must
Customer Service: The quality of customer service will be a key differentiator. As Indian consumerare habitual of calling the cable walah whenever there is some issue .A newentrant will face challenges in two fronts; One to ensure that it is providing bettercustomer service than local cable operators and on the other hand it has toprovide better customer service than existing DTH service provider.
Multicultural & Multilingual Geography: India being a multicultural, multilingual society it is very important for the newentrant to ensure that it maintains a fine balance between the regional and nationflavour.
Long gestation and break even period: It takes lot of time to for a new entrant to stabilize and grow in this industry.Even achieving the break even period is comparatively high.
Government Regulation and Licensing
Policy and Regulation

Being a nascent industry, there are lots of teething issues with the current policyframework and the way it is regulated in reality. Some of the notable challenges facedare as below
Lack of Exclusive ContentIn the global DTH market, competition is mostly on providing niche content. In IndiaTRAI does not allow broadcaster to offer content exclusively to a specific player. Hencecontent differentiation as USP is not possible currently in the Indian scenario. TRAI hasclearly indicated that exclusivity can be provided only when DTH market matures andthere is perfect competition in the market place. But DTH operators are feeling that without content differentiation, the competition can only be on price which may evencannibalize the industry.
The Rule of " Must Carry"DTH Operator is obliged to carry all the channels provided by every broadcaster on anon- discriminatory basis. However, with the capacity constraints in place, this is notfeasible. So in cases, where the operator is willing to broadcast only the popularchannels, the broadcasters either deny giving the entire bouquet or charge prices for thecomplete bouquet.
Interoperability issues.TRAI mandates an open architecture for STB's to ensure technical interoperability butin reality this is not being implemented.
POWER OF A FIRM OVER PRICE
Players are not perfectly price takers DTH industry is becoming more elastic Profit margins are decreasing
PRICING STRATEGIESThe Industry players are all incurring heavy losses in this fierce race for the subscribers.But they expect the numbers to swell before the revenues come up & comfort them. Inpresent spate of things the subscribers seem to be highly subsidized by the service

providers. Service providers are first interested in customer acquisition & marketcreation than profits at this stage. Early players in the industry know it better &have seen how the industry has changed in the span of six years. Initial prices stoodaround 5000 Rs in 2006 for STB & service activation, from there it came down to 3500Rs, 2000 Rs, 1000 Rs & went even below this when the number of players increased in2010. The Festive prices offer in 2009 & in 2010 brought down the prices at Rs 999forthis service with Dish TV & Tata Sky both. All the companies had their price offers between Rs 890 to Rs 1200. Dish TV for example in 2010 was giving STB for Rs 990 +Rs 200 for installation extra, but giving recharge vouchers worth Rs 990 absolutely free,thus an offer that puts STB for free.Companies have gone even below this to acquire a customer. Videocon was offering STBat Rs 888. Sun Direct came with the most lucrative offer with STB at Rs 890 &offeredthe lowest base pack at Rs 99 which was most economical pack across board. When theydid so, the companies were virtually subsidizing the subscriber for about 2500 Rs, the basic cost of STB & Antennae doled almost for free, in hope of future earnings &revenues reporting the subscriber numbers by which they comforted themselves to alarge extent. With the level playing field introduced between LCO & DTH operators bydigital broadcast eventually negating underreporting, the things are expected to improvein favor of DTH operators .Transparency by way of regulation was needed for a longtime in this industry & things haves started moving in right direction. The pricing of bouquets also heats up the competition. Sun Direct has been an aggressive player onthat. It differentiates by offering the best value for money economical pack, while all
others had to struggle hard to come down. Dish TV in this competition brought down itsinitial bouquet at little above 100 Rs, giving a tough fight to LCO s. Tata Sky on theother hand had a tough time shedding its prestige & premium image. It came out with aspecial campaign in answer to this bouquet price war of competitors, where it had to setaside Amir Khan as brand endorser &had to make use of two young boys in Laurel &Hardy attire asking the vendor for the lowestprice bouquet in a campaign aptly called Poochne Mein Kya Jata Hai?
An image shedding which must have been felt as an important way to tackle priceadvantage all other players were counting on, compared to Tata Sky s premium image &
fine positioning as the best service provider. What is even more special is that the exercise was precisely an image shedding overtureor else the low price offers were always there with Tata Sky. What was felt emphatically was an urge to educate consumers about

GENERIC STRATEGIES
Cost leadership
In the case of media products, means they should be offered at a price lower than theircompetitors but with as good benefits, or, the unique benefits the media products offercan over-offset the premium.
Differentiation
Differentiation in DTH refers to when a organization provides unique benefits to theusers through product innovation. This is to increase the probability of the media usersto choose the product. A media organization with a target user loyalty can concentratemore on how to fully meet the target users needs rather than on product cost saving.

Slowdown-Hit DTH Industry Seeks GovtIntervention
Hit by the global slowdown and slow growth in subscriber base, the countrys direct -to-home (DTH) service providers asked the government to bail them out and take a relookat the four-level tax system imposed on them.With the dollar appreciating against therupee, the hardware cost has gone up by 10-15 percent. The DTH industry can facemassive losses in the years to come on account of low average revenues per user (ARPU)and also the duty that each service provider has to pay while importing hardware.
Due to dollar appreciation, the hardware, especially the set-top boxes, which is importedfrom other countries, has become costlier. Therefore, the DTH players have not benefited much from service duty cuts. However, the current trend has not stopped thecompanies from launching new offers and services. Players like Dish TV and BIG TV arenow offering multi-dwelling units (MDUs), and are exploring options with real estatedevelopers for wiring their projects in the construction stage.
