Tata Play Limited (formerly known as Tata Sky Limited), is a joint venture between Tata Sons Private Limited and TFCF Corporation (formerly known as Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc., and now a part of the Walt Disney Company).
Incorporated in 2001 and initiating services in the year 2006, Tata Play is one of India's leading content distribution platforms providing Pay TV and OTT services. Tata Play was one of the first Direct to Home operators to launch customized channel packs and a-la-carte channels along with multiple products and platform services that helped redefine the content consumption and viewing experience of its subscribers.
Staying true to its commitment to making tomorrow better than today, Tata Play’s growth over the years has been cemented by many innovations and enhancements. Tata Sky+, now renamed as Tata Play+ introduced PVR (Personal Video Recorder) technology that enabled Pause, Record & Rewind of content on linear channels in Set-top boxes. This was followed by the launch of 4k Set-top Boxes in addition to the Hindi Programming Guide, Video-On-Demand, DIY video library, and the very recent Smart Guide feature that personalizes content recommendations on TV.
Subscribers also have access to over 5000+ titles from the Tata Play VOD library where they can access their favorite episodes of the past 7 days.
