The directory states no bitrate for this stream, so there is nothing to draw here. The field is filled from what a stream's own server announces when it is scanned, and plenty of servers announce nothing.
AIR Akashvani Maitree Kolkata is at position 141 of the 565 stations in India with pages here, inside the top quarter of the national listing. That is high enough to be reached by browsing rather than by searching, which is how most of these pages are actually found.
Bangla does not make India's list of commonest broadcast languages, which the hub caps at six. A station like this one is invisible on its own country page's language chart and perfectly visible on the Bangla shelf, which is the argument for having both.
Bangla is not large enough in this snapshot to have a shelf of its own here, so the station's only index is its country. Shelves are built from the directory's commonest broadcast languages and the line has to fall somewhere; below it, the country hub is the route.
This one is HLS, a segmented format rather than a single continuous stream. It is worth knowing because the failure is specific and fixable rather than a dead station: the address works, the browser just cannot open that shape of address unaided.
The stream address on this entry points at airhlspush.pc.cdn.bitgravity.com, which is where 26 other stations in India are served from as well. Platforms of that size carry the long tail of a country's dial, and they are the reason a listing can look broken when it is one host having a quiet hour.

These are counts of what people did inside the public radio-browser catalogue and the apps that read it, over the whole life of the entry. They are not our own figures and they are not an audience measurement: most entries in this catalogue sit under five all-time plays, so a small number here means the catalogue has little to say about this station rather than that nobody listens to it.
