Slowly, India is becoming more like the European and American countries in terms of telecom segment. Various telecom operators in countries such as the US and Europe are focusing heavily on providing content to the users. While in the US, there are many players such as the AT&T, Verizon, etc. aiming for the top spot, but thankfully, in India, we have only a few players who are into the content game.

Airtel and Jio are the aggressive content providers in the country with other players such as Vodafone and Idea just entering the space.
Jio especially is embarking its name not only as a telecom operator but also as a digital content provider with services such as JioMusic, JioCinema, JioTv, etc.
With the JioTv application, Reliance Jio Infocomm (RJIL) intends to take on the cable TV and DTH operators. To a good extent, Jio has managed to achieve that already. Currently, the JioTv app has 432 channels to stream live TV across 15 regional languages.
JioTv (earlier known as JioPlay) initially launched with just 200 channels on board with support for five to six languages. As the time passed by, the company has added new channels and new languages.
Also, Jio used to have only four categories earlier. But now there are ten categories divided across eight business news channels, 31 devotional channels, 100 entertainment channels, 27 infotainment channels, 23 kids Channels,12 lifestyle channels, 38 movie channels, 34 music channels,139 news channels, and 20 sports channels. After looking the channel category list, it is clear that Jio has achieved to embed a portable STB into the application.
