In 1962 the Indian government created the country’s first television channel,
Doordarshan, it remained the only Indian TV channel until the early 1980′s,
a far cry from the current offering where you can recieve a great range of
Indian TV Online channels on your computer.

Ramayana and Mahabharat were the first major television shows
produced,they were both Hindu mythological stories based on religious scriptures.
Both serials created the world record for audience numbers for
a single show. By 1986 more people started to own television sets.
Though there was a single channel, television production had reached
it’s maximum audience, causing the government to create an opening for a new channel which had
some national programming and some regional. This channel was known as DD
2 later DD Metro, both channels were broadcast on the ground as opposed to
via satellites in space.

The Indian government then launched a series of economic and social reforms

under the premiership of Narasimha Rao in 1991. Under the new policies the governmentallowed private and foreign broadcasters to get involved in limited operations in India. This process has been pursued consistently by all subsequent federal
governments. Foreign broadcasters like CNN, Star TV and domestic channels such
as Zee TV and Sun TV started satellite programming. In 1962 India had just 42
TV sets in the whole country and one TV channel, right now TV in India covers
more than 130 million homes giving a viewing population more than 800 million
individuals through more than 300 channels. A large relatively untapped market,
the range of programming and the advent of technology giving easy public access are the
most important reasons that TV in india has expanded so quickly.
It must be stressed that Television Entertainment in India is one of the cheapest
in the world.Approximately 65% of homes in India have access to satellite TV,
which became established after Star TV, the broadcasting vehicle of media mogul,Rupert Murdoch, set the ball rolling in 1991.

Sun TV was launched in 1992 as the first private channel in South India.
It now totals 20 stations, broadcasting in the main 4 languages of Southern India – Tamil,Telegu,
Kannada and Malayalam. The Sun TV network also broadcasts to many other countries
of India. Recently Sun TV launched a DTH service.

The Raj Network was started in 1994 and is an important player in the South
Satellite Television industry in India.

In 1992, the Indian government changed policy by opening up to cable television.
Star TV and it’s five Hong Kong based channels gave Indians a
new option. MTV, BBC, Star Plus, Prime Sports and STAR Chinese Channel were the
5 stations. The very first private sector broadcaster in India was Zee TV
on cable. After several years, the Discovery and National Geographic channel as well as Ted Turner’s CNN
made its foray into India. Star expanded its range introducing STAR World, ESPN,
STAR Sports and STAR Gold. Those channels that were based around regional broadcasting flourished with a range of Hindi
channels and a few English channels. By 2001 The History Channel and HBO
entered India. By 2003, other channels such as Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network,
Disney,Toon Disney and VH1 joined the ranged of options for the Indian viewer.
In 2003 International and Domestic news channels started to grow.

India is currently undergoing the implementation of a new TV system called CAS
where the viewer gets the option to choose the channels they want to pay for and
view, instead of receiving the whole set of channels that the Cable Operator
makes available to them, so benefit by having to pay for just the channels they
want to watch. Currently, in most of India, there is no segregation and subscribers
pay a blanket rate for the entire service.

Over the last 40 years Indians have migrated all over the globe, The UK,USA,
and South Africa are just 3 countries where the resident Indian population went
over the million several years ago. This has brought about a new demand for
domestic TV channels from Indians overseas creating the market for OnlineTVepisode.com.com,
has produced a product exactly for those people. The downloaded software allows
