NTC’s FTTH had been providing data and voice call service but since 2077 Poush 17, the company integrated the IPTV service known as NTTV which is collectively termed as Triple Play.
In its first phase, NTC launched the service in Kathmandu and Banepa which has now gone live in major areas in the country including Pokhara, Lahan, Butwal, Damauli, Banglung, Bhairawaha among others.

The company’s IPTV comprises all the major TV channels popular in the country in basic and premium categories. NTC plans to expand its FTTH service across 65 districts in the current Fiscal Year 078/79.
