BSNL Unveils Fibre-Based Intranet TV Service Featuring 500+ Live Channels Across India

Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has introduced a pioneering fibre-based intranet TV service, branded as IFTV, in select regions of India. Launched as part of a broader initiative that also unveiled BSNL’s new logo and six other services, IFTV leverages the company’s fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) network to provide a high-quality live TV experience. This move marks a significant step in BSNL’s efforts to modernize its service offerings and enhance its competitiveness in the telecommunications sector.

The IFTV service delivers over 500 live TV channels along with Pay TV content, setting it apart from other major players like Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel. Unlike traditional streaming platforms, BSNL’s IFTV does not deduct data consumption for streaming from the user’s monthly internet quota, offering a more cost-effective solution for subscribers. This innovative approach aims to attract customers looking for an affordable, high-quality alternative for accessing television and on-demand content.

In addition to IFTV, BSNL recently introduced a national Wi-Fi roaming service, enabling users to connect seamlessly to BSNL hotspots across India. This service minimizes data costs by providing high-speed internet access outside the traditional home network. Together, these offerings reflect BSNL’s commitment to improving connectivity and enhancing customer convenience.

Currently, BSNL’s IFTV service is available in Madhya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu, with plans for expansion in the pipeline. By combining cutting-edge technology with competitive pricing, BSNL seeks to redefine the digital entertainment experience for its customers, further solidifying its presence in the rapidly growing Indian telecommunications market.
