...Project Report on DTH Services in India Hyderabad Business School Team Members Name : Janardhan Samba Murthy Roll No: 2225112112 Email ID : janardhansambamurthyrock@gmail.com Name : R.Kavya Roll No: 2225112130 Email ID : Introduction: In earlier days there was only one TV channel in India. That is “Doordarshan” which was owned and operated by government of India. At the time of 90’s every home which had a TV set used to have its own antenna to capture the signals. The Cable Television Ordinance Law was passed in January 1995. This enabled cable operators to feed channels and later on private companies were allowed to air their own channels and this led to the explosive growth in number of TV channels and number of cable operators. The growth of TV channels & cable operators created a big industry and market opportunities. There were as many as 1, 00,000 cable operators across India until few years back. However the services provided by cable operators were poor. The strikes, increase in tariff plan, selective broadcast and poor services were major cause of dissatisfaction among the customers. This has created an opportunity for DTH. What is DTH? DTH stands for Direct-To-Home, it’s a system that allows you to have a personal dish antenna how cable operators do, except it’s much smaller in size, this antenna can be fixed on your terrace and receives transmissions directly from a satellite, hence it is called as a direct to home service.

Out of the 71 million TV households in 1999, 32 million had access to Cable TV. However, along with the soaring viewership, complaints on quality also increased. Digitalisation of Cable TV took a new form when Direct-To-Home (DTH) was launched in India in 2003.The DTH service is an encrypted transmission. It is a digital satellite service that provides television services direct to subscribers anywhere within the country. Unlike the regular cable connection, the Set- Top-Box (STB) decodes the encrypted transmission. Since it makes use of wireless technology, programmes are sent to the subscriber’s television direct from the satellite. This eliminates the need for cables and cable infrastructure. DTH service is particularly effective in remote areas, where cables and even normal television services are poor or nonexistent. These services provide the finest picture and sound quality. Like the quality of any modern movie theatre, DTH also provides the best quality surround sound.Although DTH services were proposed in India way back in 1996, it was not permitted until 2003....

...boost DTH in India The successful launch Thursday of India's heaviest satellite from spaceport of Kourou in French Guyana may have boosted the country's space research efforts to yet another level, but it has also lifted the spirits of at least three Direct-To-Home televisions broadcasters, one of which has been waiting for years to launch its services in India. Onboard India's new generation spacecraft Ariane-5G rocket, the INSAT-4A was placed in geosynchronous transfer orbit in 3-axis stabilized mode shortly after launch, drawing cheers for the fact that it was the first launch of a 3,080 kg satellite by India. It is the also the first Indian satellite to meet the requirement of the DTH television services. "Insat-4A is the most advanced, heaviest and powerful satellite and it's a very important milestone in the history of India's space program," said Madhavan Iyer, the chairman of the Indian Space Research Organization. "This is going to revolutionize TV broadcasting directly to the homes and improve the entertainment scenario in India." After completing orbit-raising operations and a few tests, INSAT-4A will become fully operational in early 2006. It will be positioned in geostationary orbit 36,000 km above the equator. For the DTH wannabes then, this is indeed good news because even as the country's TV viewership explodes, peculiar broadcasting laws and lack of transponder availability has been obstructing proliferation of DTH services in the country for years.

...2006. It is one of the leading India-based Direct To Home (DTH) service provider. It has crossed three million connections mark in a period of 20 months. Therefore, it is the fastest growing direct-to-home service provider across the globe. It is a joint venture between Tata Group with 80% stake and STAR Group with 20% stake. It currently offers more than 196 channels and few interactive ones; the count includes few numbers of HD channels offered by Tata Sky called as Tata Sky - HD and interactive services. Tata Sky has tied with Aamir Khan as its brand ambassador. Aamir Khan features all Tata Sky brand and product communication such as advertisements in TV, print and radio. Tata Sky has targeted to have about eight million connections by 2012. The direct-to-home (DTH) industry in India currently has about 30 million subscribers and six players. It is assumed to grow to 60 million subscribers by the end of 2013 despite the fact that the industry faces several issues such as low average revenue per user (ARPU), high cost of acquisition of content and subscribers, and various taxes such as entertainment tax and service tax. In India, approximately 12 million set-top boxes are sold annually. While the DTH industry is working on new ideas, one of its areas of concern has been the availability of sufficient bandwidth, which would allow a DTH operator to telecast more than 500 channels. Some companies are working with DTH operators to develop two-three satellites to increase their...

...Planning and Measuring Performance MGT 521 Rita Marlow January 19, 2013 Wal-Mart was the company I used in my Organizational Planning assignment and I feel that this organization is successful in reaching their goals because they have good leaders who are capable of putting processes in place and determining which standards would be best to use in evaluating their company goals. There are many different ways of evaluating these standards to make sure that the company goals can be reached and it is important for leaders to make sure they are effective in measuring the company’s performance by utilizing the proper tools. Improvements in merchandise can be accomplished by setting standards such as requesting better quality from your suppliers. If the quality of the merchandise you are receiving is poor, you can either work with your current supplier to try and get a better quality product from them or change suppliers. A good friend of mine is a Purchasing Coordinator and his main functions in his position are to continually work with his suppliers in regards to cost, lead times, and quality of product. He has developed a good relationship with our suppliers which increase the company’s chance of getting a better price and better quality product. A tool that would be most effective in regards to determining which supplier offers the best quality would be benchmarking. Benchmarking would be very effective because it would give you an overview of various suppliers...

...BAB II LANDASAN TEORI II.1 Manajemen Laba II.1.1 Pengertian Manajemen Laba Salah satu ukuran kinerja perusahaan yang sering digunakan sebagai dasar pengambilan keputusan bisnis adalah laba yang dihasilkan perusahaan. Informasi laba sebagaimana dinyatakan dalam Statement of Financial Accounting Concept (SFAC) Nomor 2 merupakan unsur utama dalam laporan keuangan dan sangat penting bagi pihak-pihak yang menggunakannya karena memiliki nilai prediktif. Hal tersebut membuat pihak manajemen berusaha untuk melakukan manajemen laba agar kinerja perusahaan tampak baik oleh pihak eksternal. Manajemen laba (earning management) didefinisikan oleh beberapa peneliti akuntansi secara berbeda-beda sbb : 1. Widyaningdyah (2001 :92) membagi definisi manajemen laba menjadi dua yaitu: 14 15 a. Definisi sempit Earning management dalam hal ini hanya berkaitan dengan pemilihan metode akuntansi. Earning management dalam artian sempit ini didefinisikan sebagai perilaku manager untuk “bermain” dengan komponen discretionary accruals dalam penentuan besarnya laba. b. Definisi luas Earning management merupakan tindakan manajer untuk meningkatkan (mengurangi) laba yang dilaporkan saat ini atas unit dimana manager bertanggung jawab, tanpa mengakibatkan peningkatan (penurunan) profitabilitas ekonomis jangka panjang unit tersebut. 2. Healy dan Wahlen (1999: 368) memberikan definisi manajemen laba yang ditinjau dari sudut pandang penetap standar, yaitu manajemen laba terjadi...
