Why are there are very few HD news channels in India?
In India, there are very few HD news channels and this is primarily due to cost-related issues. The broadcasting of HD channels requires significant investment in technology and infrastructure, which many news channels can't afford. Furthermore, the viewership for HD channels is still not as high as for standard definition, thereby making it less lucrative for channels to opt for HD broadcasting. Additionally, many Indian households still don't have the necessary equipment to receive HD broadcasts. This combined lack of demand and high operating costs has led to a scarcity of HD news channels in India.
