Research and Markets states that India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka are the three countries with active IPTV subscriber base in the SAARC region. IPTV is still evolving and is not widely accepted as a pay-TV model by SAARC countries.
Total active IPTV subscriber base in SAARC (adding these 3 countries) will be around 300,000+.
SriLanka's IPTV subscriber base contributes to nearly 47% of the overall SAARC IPTV subscribers, followed by Pakistan and India with about 35% and 18% respectively.
Sri Lanka and Pakistan are showing high interest in pushing IPTV. Nepal's internet service providers are planning to launch commercial IPTV services by the end of 2015.
While India's BSNL and MTNL has given up their hopes on IPTV. Airtel, ACT and Reliance are retaining the service only in few circles.
