IAMAI says FAST channels should not be brought under licensing framework

Short summary

IAMAI has argued that FAST (Free Ad-supported Streaming TV) channels and ALTD services should not be brought under the broadcasting licensing framework, as they are app-based internet services. The association contends that extending broadcasting regulations to these services contradicts the government's own digital content ecosystem laws. This is a regulatory policy matter relevant to India's media and streaming industry.

  • IAMAI opposes licensing framework for FAST and ALTD channels
  • Argues they are app-based internet services, not traditional broadcasting
  • Relevant to India's digital content regulatory landscape
