TV-INSAT Policy Guidelines

TV(I) Section underthe Broadcasting Wing regulates the grant of permission for uplinking and downlinking of Satellite TV channels in India and renewal thereof in terms of the applicable policy guidelines for uplinking and downlinking of the satellite TV channels in India. The permission for setting-up the Teleport/ Teleport Hub, uplink facility by News Agency, use of SNG/DSNG/ ENG equipment, uplinking of foreign channels through Indian Teleport etc. are issued by the TV (I) Section. In order to promote ‘Ease of Doing Business’ and ‘Ease of Compliance’, the Policy Guidelines for Uplinking and Downlinking of Satellite TV Channels in India, 2022 have been issued in November 2022. These guidelines have a simplified and rationalized structure viz-a-viz the previous guidelines. To facilitate grant of various permissions, Ministry has launched a revamped version of the Broadcast Seva Portal (https://new.broadcastseva.gov.in) wherein applicants can apply online for grant of permission for the above services.
