Packages aimed at offering more value to subscribers at beneficial rates

With a view to offer more value for subscribers at beneficial pricing, Big TV DTH, the fully Digital Home entertainment service from Reliance Communications, has introduced two new packages for its South and Non-South subscribers with effect from February 2, 2009.

The new plan, aimed at the growing television viewing preferences of the audience, Under BIG TV’s “Smart 2490/Smart South 2490” offer, subscribers will get 3 months of FREE Premium/South Premium Pack; 2 months of FREE SVOD (80 movies), along with 1 Regional pack FREE.

For BIG TV’s “Choice 1990” offer, subscribers will get 3 months FREE Lite Pack; 2 months FREE SVOD, and 1 Regional Pack of their choice.

“Our new offer clearly shows BIG TV scores over competition in terms of value packaging as well as on price front.  A cursory look at different packages offered by DTH players in India will prove that a subscriber stands to benefit greatly by opting for BIG TV over others. This is true of the packages currently offered by us,” said Mr. Mahesh Prasad, President – Reliance Communications.

According to Mr. Prasad, though other DTH packages may look very lucrative till FREE period, but post FREE Subscription they become expensive. Watching ESPN or STAR Sports, means shelling out more money additional fee for each channel whereas BIG TV charges much less.

Both above offers also come with attractive 2 months free SVOD (Subscription Video On Demand) as added bonus to the above value packages to the new subscribers.  With this offer, BIG TV DTH offer tops other offers currently in market by DTH services.
