Technology wise it is possible.. Just an extension of existing technologies.. If one can buy channels, pay-per-view events with click of a button and account gets updated immediately..the transaction medium is in place..only some innovative business leader should see right through it..
With Set Boxes and IP-TVs TV is no longer mass transmission.... it is more becoming personally identifiable like a cell phone/laptop..
I believe it is only a matter of time..
Seriously speaking should I forward it to the management at TV18 for their brainstorming and if they think that it is possible they could implement it?

By all means Basant ji !
With technology available it is feasible... Business wise also it makes sense..May be SEBI/legal angles need to be analyzed.. But other than that ...I cannot think of a reason why TV18 should not consider this idea...

Often we forget there's a company behind every stock,and there's only one reason why stocks go up. Companies go from doing poorly to doing well or small companies grow to large companies.

Imagine such a world ! I just think it may not be very far off.. Just such transactions will come with quick adult lock kind of 4 digit password.. So just couple of clicks one can sell/buy stocks..
Good for us !

Wonderful. Is it possible practically if so is IP-TV the link in this chain. You have really come up with a briliant idea!
Pieces of the chain to buy/sell while watching CNBC:
Business Channel: CNBC
E-broking facility: TV18-Ambit(in Future)
Connectivity: IPTV
TV18 already has the stuff needed. IPTV can do just about anything that any software can, really personalize everything from surfing on NET to watching movies or business channels all-in-one!! Good idea Vivek jee.
The most important quality for an investor is temperament,not intellect.A temperament that neither derives great pleasure from being with the crowd nor against it

rj can never be a warren buffett. he made money purely by speculating,making 40 times money in 40 months from acc. it takes luck to make money through speculating, it takes brains to make money the warren buffett way. there is no one to match him.
