Airtel Digital TV: How to choose 100 or more channels under new TRAI rules

Airtel users can select their channels or packs on the company’s official site or MyAirtel app, both of which are running banner ads for selecting channels under TRAI’s new framework. Click on the ad and users will be prompted to log in to their account.

Airtel Recommended packs are based on the user’s TV patterns as well as the channels they are currently subscribed to.

People can log in with their subscriber id or registered mobile number on both the website and app. Next, an OTP will be sent to their registered mobile number, which users will need to enter to log in to their account.

Once logged in, users will be displayed three options to choose from – Airtel Recommended Packs, Broadcaster packs, and Ala-Carte. The Recommended packs are based on the user’s TV patterns as well as the channels they are currently subscribed to. Then there are Broadcaster packs.

Users can choose to go with one of the packs they like or select individual channels from Ala-Carte category to make their own monthly pack. The number of channels will start from 25 as Airtel by default selects 25 free Doordarshan channels.

Users can choose to go with one of the packs they like or select individual channels from Ala-Carte category to make their own monthly pack.

Several channels are free, while others are paid. The monthly prices for paid channels will be displayed alongside the name of the channel. The total monthly amount that users need to pay will be displayed once users select their 100 or more channels. Finally, click on Confirm to proceed.

There is also a way to activate channel packs by scanning QR code on their TV using phone’s camera or third-party QR code scanner app. Once users select their monthly channels or packs, they can activate their selection by scanning a QR code on their TV and send it to 54325. The pack will automatically get activated starting February 1.
