When it comes to choosing DTH operators for a new connection at your home, chances are you will be faced with a handful of choices, and it will be a little tough for you to choose given that almost all the DTH operators are currently offering competitive prices for their DTH connections, Set-Top Boxes and other services. Two of the top names in the industry seem to be Dish TV and Tata Sky right now. Out of these two, Dish TV happens to be the choice for a lot of subscribers. Now with this being said, there are also a lot of customers of Dish TV who are currently using a Standard Definition Set-Top Box and they would like to upgrade from SD to HD Set-Top Box. Usually, for subscribers like these, the DTH operators offer an upgrade for a lesser cost, which means that the subscribers do not have to pay the full amount of the Set-Top Box, but they can pay much less amount to upgrade to an HD version. But, in a new move, Dish TV has increased the upgrade cost for the HD Set-Top Box for the subscribers. Here is what you need to know about this.

Dish TV HD Upgrade Pricing
It is worth noting that with the increased adaptation of HD TVs and with most of the subscribers now switching to HD, a lot of the subscribers on SD Set-Top Boxes are also going to want to switch to HD connections from Dish TV. For this, the older price for upgrading from the SD Set-Top Box was Rs 799, but now the subscribers of Dish TV will have to pay Rs 200 more, that is now the Dish TV HD upgrade will set back the subscribers by Rs 999.
