IBF issues circular asking members to delay the generation and dispatch of bills on a net basis by a week in order to facilitate the discussion between the sub group of the IBF and the AAAI which is seeking to find a solution to the issue.

Trai consultation paper seeks stakeholders view on sample size, secrecy of sample homes, cross holding between rating agencies and their users, complaint redressal, sale and use of ratings, disclosure and reporting requirement, competition in rating services, and audit.

Broadcasters propose to issue bills to media agencies net of agency commission after receiving notices from the IT department; proposal not acceptable to AAAI.
