Tharisanam TV Australia was launched in January 2007 after the closure of Sigaram TV Australia in September 2006 due to Sigaram's bankruptcy.

In May 2007 when the France-based pay TV, Tamil Television Network (TTN) was shut down, Tharisanam TV acquired the assets and subscribers of Tamil Television Network (TTN) and expanded its service to Europe.

However, in Australia, the channel continued to operate as Tharisanam TV. The channel changed its name to Global Tamil Vision in October 2008. The channel is available across Europe, Middle East and North Africa via Eutelsat's Hot Bird 8 satellite. The channel is available in Australia via Globecast TV.
