SC reserves order in Sea vs Star case

Supreme Court

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court today completed hearing arguments from both sides, Star TV and Sea TV, a franchise of WWIL, on the question of whether an a broadcaster's agent could also be an MSO, and reserved its orders.

The parties concerned have been asked to file written submissions within a week.The case relates to Sea TV, a WWIL franchise MSO based in Agra, which had requested signals from Star.

However, Star had asked Sea TV to take the signals from one of their agents, Moon TV. It is then that Sea TV had pointed out that Moon TV is actually an MSO in competition with it, and had filed a case in the TDSAT, asking whether a broadcaster's agent could also be an MSO.

The TDSAT had earlier last year ruled against Star , who had then filed an appeal with the Supreme Court.

The court heard the final arguments for two days over lengthy sessions, and reserved its orders.
