Emphasis is also being laid on the expansion of FM Transmission. This would ensure superior stereophonic sound and would also make available old Medium Wave programmes on FM mode. The programmes would become available for wider reception, even over hand held mobile sets.

The FM Phase-III policy envisages the extension of private FM Radio services to about 227 new cities in addition to the present 86 cities. 839 new FM radio channels are to be auctioned in 294 cities under the Policy to increase the audience.
