In January, Tata Play (previously Tata Sky) introduced new Binge Combo Plans that offered Netflix access to its subscribers. It already has separate offers as part of its Binge Service, including services such as Disney+Hotstar, Amazon Prime Video, Sonyliv etc, along with access to the regular TV channels. For Netflix, the service has distinct combo plans, which is again clubbed with regular TV channels.
If users subscribe to the Netflix combo plan, they would be able to access the streaming service through their Tata Play Binge+ Smart set-top box or via the Tata Play Binge mobile app. The Tata Play Bing service is also available on the Amazon Fire TV Stick-Tata Play Edition.
