Tata Sky offers over 600 channels through its DTH service. With the maximum number of HD channels and over 17 million connections in India, Tata Sky is preferred DTH service provider in India.

Tata Sky (stylised as TATA | sky) is an Indian direct broadcast satellite television provider in India, using MPEG-4 digital compression technology, transmitting using INSAT-4A and GSAT-10 satellite. Incorporated in 2006, Tata Sky is a joint venture between the Tata Group and The Walt Disney Company with Temasek Holdings as a minor partner. It was started as a joint venture between Tata Group and 21st Century Fox (now owned by The Walt Disney Company).

In March 2009, Tata Sky became the first Indian DTH service provider to be awarded the ISO 27001: 2005 accreditation, the benchmark for information security. ISO 27001:2005 is an international standard that provides specifications and guidance for the establishment and proper maintenance of an Information Security Management System (ISMS).

Tata Sky is an equity strategic alliance in the nature of a joint venture between the Tata Group and 21st Century Fox (now owned by The Walt Disney Company), which own 70% and 30% stake respectively. In 2008, Singapore-based Temasek Holdings picked up 10% stake in Tata Sky from the Tata Group. Tata Sky was incorporated in 2001 but launched services on 8 August 2006.

STAR’s parent company, 21st Century Fox, formerly owned an international group of DTH businesses that include Sky Italia in Italy and Sky UK in the United Kingdom. The company uses the Sky brand under a license from Sky.
