List of television networks in Sri Lanka

The first Television network in Sri Lanka, named Independent Television Network (ITN) was launched on April 13, 1979 as a private broadcaster. On June 5, 1979 ITN was converted to a government owned business and it was later brought under the Sri Lanka Rupavahini Act of 1982 along with the newly created Sri Lanka Rupavahini Corporation (SLRC). Significant changes occurred in 1992 when the government allowed the first private television networks to be established. In the same year, the Maharaja Television Network (MTV) was launched in collaboration with Singapore Telecommunications Limited (SingTel).

Since then a number of new networks have been established. There are also a few Satellite networks and Pay television networks in Sri Lanka. The national telecommunications provided Sri Lanka Telecom has also announced they will launch an IPTV service in February 2008.

The following is a complete list of television networks in Sri Lanka.
