Airtel IPTV Services to Roll Out Across India on March 12, 2025: Everything You Need to Know
IPTV stands for the delivery of television programming over an internet connection instead of traditional satellite or cable mechanisms. As most users live in the online world, this technology allows them to stream live television stations, on-demand video, and even sound.
To view their IPTV solution, clients will need a feasible Web network and should mention an IPTV-compatible set-top box (STB). ​Airtel IPTV services are essentially built to deliver a complete entertainment package via broadband internet, live TV channels, and access to OTT providers. The Airtel Black IPTV Entertainment Plans start at ₹699 per month, offering unlimited internet with speeds up to 40 Mbps.
On the other hand, higher-end plans include the ₹899 plan for speeds up to 100 Mbps, the ₹1,099 plan that offers speeds up to 200 Mbps, the ₹1,599 plan for up to 300 Mbps, and the ₹3,999 plan for speeds up to 1,024 Mbps. Each arrangement includes IPTV services, fiber Internet, landline connections, and different OTT app advantages according to the arrangement. Users can activate Airtel IPTV plans from the Airtel website or through the Airtel Thanks app with the registered number. There, customers can navigate to their existing broadband plan and select an IPTV package to add.
In a move to encourage users, Airtel is also providing free installation by charging the customer a one-time, non-refundable payment of ₹2,500; this amount will later reflected in future invoices. This means better hardware and configuration for the end-user free of charge. ​After a soft launch in select regions, Airtel’s IPTV services will now be available across the country from March 12, 2025. This expansion allows IPTV technology to function as a complete entertainment solution by providing customers in every part of India with the newest high-tech viewing options.
