BSNL currently offers mobile TV services in association with Digivive through the NexG TV app. For this offering BSNL has a revenue sharing tie up with Digivive, whereby a mobile TV specific data STV offered by BSNL has the operator's own share along with a share of the Mobile TV content provider.
Initially a Rs.211 data STV would have Rs.136 share of BSNL for which the operator would give 1GB of data which could be used to view all the channels on NexG TV for a subscription of 15 days. This STV has been withdrawn by BSNL.
