    TDSAT orders All India Digital to pay up dues to Taj Television

    NEW DELHI: Two senior executives of All India Digital Network have been asked to appear before the Telecom Disputes Settlement & Appellate Tribunal on 1 September 2016 with cheques for the payment of five installments of Rs. 86,64,000 owed to Taj Television.

    Member B B Srivastava said in his order of 9 August 2016 that managing director G N Prasad had failed to come to the Tribunal on 12 February 2016 as directed but had sent director G Carriapa. The member wanted both to be present next time.

    The tribunal in its last order had noted that a payment schedule had been presented before it on behalf of GTPL which had agreed to pay all the dues of All Digital Network India Ltd but no installment had been paid by either, and the tribunal was told that “GTPL had walked out of the arrangement with All Digital.”

    All Digital counsel Manikya Khanna had then informed the Tribunal that his client was prepared to pay as GTPL had backed out.

    The Tribunal gave its order after All Digital counsel Sharath Sampath submitted that he had not been able to get any instruction with regard to the payments in order of 26 July 2016.

    TDSAT to Taj TV: Restore signals to All Digital Network

    NEW DELHI: Taj Television India Pvt. Ltd has been directed by the Telecom Disputes Settlement and Appellate Tribunal to restore the supply of signals to All Digital Network India Ltd with the MSO agreeing it will makes the aggregate payment of five instalments of Rs 86,64,000 each payable by 30 June.

    The supply of signals thus restored, shall continue provided further payments, if any, are made in terms of the schedule, according to the order by chairman Aftab Alam and member B B Srivastava who listed the case for 22 July. The tribunal also recalled its order restraining the petitioner and GTPL from making any withdrawals from their bank accounts.

    Earlier, a payment schedule was submitted before the tribunal on behalf of GTPL which had accepted to pay off the dues of All Digital Network to Taj Television. Under that schedule, five instalments of Rs 86,64,000 each were payable to Taj Television by 30 June with the fourth and fifth instalment falling due on that date.

    But the tribunal was informed on 3 June that neither the GTPL nor All Digital had paid a single instalment under the schedule. Further, it was told that GTPL is also reported to have walked out of the arrangement with All Digital.

    However, All Digital counsel Manikya Khanna told the tribunal that since GTPL was not complying with the commitment given on its behalf, All Digital accepted its liability to pay the dues of Taj TV and it will make payment in terms of the schedule earlier given on behalf of GTPL.
