Prime TV was a television channel based in Sri Lanka. The channel was operated by the Independent Television Network Limited, which is a state governed television and radio broadcaster in Sri Lanka.

During its existence, it aired programming with entertainment, social, cultural and educative values. It broadcast news, foreign movies & TV shows, & Sri Lankan-based English & Tamil productions.[1]

In 2011 CSN replaced Prime TV by taking over the required terrestrial frequencies. As a result, most of the Prime TV's shows, including their news bulletin, Prime TV News, were moved over to its Tamil language sister channel Vasantham TV. Eventually, the channel ceased their operations.[2]

The channel used to broadcast in the English language.[1]
