According to the same tabloid, Raj Kundra who still remains to be on the board of directors with a 63 per cent stake in the company along with Shilpa Shetty Kundra, had sent his resignation via email on December 15. “I would like to officially resign as CEO of Best Deal TV. All good things come to an end, I guess,” he had written.

The company had terminated its service in December 2015. Since then it never started their services.
