https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=172570 Under the Telecommunication (Broadcasting and Cable Services) Interconnection Regulation, 2004, a broadcaster may route signals through a designated agent, but only if the arrangement preserves non-discriminatory access. The text distinguishes between the broadcaster making channels available to its own appointed recipient and that recipient re-transmitting the channels onward. Where the designated agent is also an active competing distributor or multi system operator in the same territory, the arrangement must be assessed in its actual contractual setting, and exclusivity may create competitive prejudice. On the stated facts, routing signals through the competitor-agent was treated as discriminatory and inconsistent with equal access. en-us Tue, 03 Apr 2007 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 23 Nov 2015 12:25:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=172570 Under the Telecommunication (Broadcasting and Cable Services) Interconnection Regulation, 2004, a broadcaster may route signals through a designated agent, but only if the arrangement preserves non-discriminatory access.
