Reliance Digicom, the standalone entity planned by the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (ADAG) for offering direct-to-home, IPTV, broadband and cable TV services under one banner, is expected to become operational by end 2010-11. While the group had announced the formation of Reliance Digicom in July 2010 after it acquired Digicable in an all-stock deal, it is learnt to be facing several impediments due to differences over shareholding pattern in the entity, post merger. Also, there are differences among the stakeholders over the actual subscriber base and the number of cable operators who should come under the merged entity.
