How old is the TV. the main board might have bent far too much and so this may happen. Generally happens if there is an issue with the AGC. But if that is the issue then the AV mode should work fine.

TV is i guess 12-15 yrs old.... as i told in both mode it shows same display!
Is there anything i can do or should i take it to repair shop???

Q.C Passed. Tested. OK
I don't think it'd be wise to repair it at this stage. OK just saying. Don't take my word for it though. I guess u r better off buying a low budget LCD TV than to get a 12 years old tv repaired. E products don't last long.

ok i got it repaired..... but can switching off TV directly from wall can be cause of this???

Im not from an EC background but it could be. Its always advised to switch off first via remote and then the switch.

Switching off from the main is similar to a power cut which we know that in usual cases, leads to failure of some components.

Remote's only button that stopped working is ON/OFF :(

hm.. try using the button on the tv to switch off...

Try doing that. Switching off with remote still uses power, "vampire consumption", and puts it only in standby mode. Pulling the plug in standby mode can cause similar problems to pulling the plug while on, because many components are still running, AFAIK.
