ESPN takes InCable row to court

Our Bureau

New Delhi, Nov. 18

ESPN Software India Pvt Ltd has filed a winding up petition in the Bombay High Court against the Hinduja-promoted Indus Ind Media and Communications Ltd, InCable Network, to recover the outstanding cable subscription amount of over Rs 4 crore.

According to a statement by ESPN, the actual outstanding cable subscription amount currently adds up to Rs 7.1 crore. "The Honourable Bombay High Court has accepted the petition and listed it for admission hearing on January 29, 2004," said the statement.

According to the petition, ESPN Software India Pvt Ltd had entered into various service contracts with InCable Network to distribute the popular ESPN and STAR Sports channels in Mumbai and other cities, which it services. InCable Network was to pay monthly subscription fees.

But, for inexplicable reasons, InCable Network had failed to make payments towards the subscription fees in accordance with the contracts.

Despite InCable Network's failure to pay the subscription fees, ESPN Software kept the services on and made bonafide attempts to persuade InCable to discharge their payment obligations.
