Viacom18, Network18, Sun Network & Disney channels to be off Digicable from April 13, 2012

With effect from today, Viacom18, Network 18, Sun Network and Disney channels distributed by Sun 18 (north) will be switched of across Digicable networks across North, West, East and Central India.

Digicable viewers across these regions will not be able to view their popular shows and programs on leading channels like COLORS, MTV, CNBC TV 18, CNN IBN, Sun TV, Gemini, Surya, Disney Channel and Hungama (amongst others) from April 13 onwards. This switch-off by the broadcasters is due to non-payment of subscription fees and breach of agreement by Digicable. Sun18, which distributes 46 channels from the four leading networks, had given Digicable a 21-day notice to ensure the much delayed subscription payments are paid out. The deadline of the notice ended on 12th April 2012.
