In 2005 another major television channel came into action under the name Derana which now has multiple broadcasting platforms including radio, printed media, and a fully dedicated news channel called adaderana24X7. A privately-owned company, Swarnawahini came into action in 1997 and still functions under the same brand name. Since then, during the last two decades, multiple broadcasting networks have entered the public frequencies. The national telecommunications provider Sri Lanka Telecom also launched an IPTV service in 2008. There are also a number of satellite networks and pay per view television networks in Sri Lanka.

Since then many new TV stations have started in Sri Lanka. Maharaja Television (MTV), a joint venture between Capital Maharaja and Singapore Telecommunications Limited, was one of the first private TV stations. The government maintained a monopoly on television broadcasting until 1992 when private TV stations were allowed to broadcast but they were to be regulated by the SLRC. The Act required the SLRC maintain taste and decency and not to incite crime and disorder or cause religious or public offence.

SLRC started broadcasting on 15 February 1982. Sri Lanka's second state-owned TV station - Sri Lanka Rupavahini Corporation (SLRC) - was established by the Sri Lanka Rupavahini Corporation Act No. The new station remained independent for less than two months as the government took control of it on 5 June 1979 following a dispute with President J. Businessmen Anil Wijewardena and Shan Wickremasinghe established the country's first TV station Independent Television Network which started broadcasting on 15 April 1979.
