Satellite operator Intelsat and LAMHAS, one of the fastest growing teleport operators in India, have announced a multi-year agreement for satellite services supporting media distribution in India via the Intelsat 20 satellite.
LAMHAS is using a C-band Multiple Channels per Carrier broadcast platform on Intelsat 20, located at 68.5° East, to deliver broadcast services to new and emerging TV channels in the devotional, spiritual and patriotic genres as well as regional news programming. Under the previously announced agreement, LAMHAS increased its services commitment on Intelsat 20, while also renewing its previous agreement for an extended term.

We look forward to continuing our partnership with Intelsat and using its satellite services to expand our broadcast customer base,” said Ajay Jain, CEO, LAMHAS.
