Welcome!
I guess my first question is, are you really in Sri Lanka? If you are, the answer is yes. Lyngsat is where I would start, plus ask around your local satellite tv shops. You'll have to do some research, but Asia and Europe still have quite a few FTA channels.
If you've relocated to the States, you're probably out of luck. Certainly no FTA channels on Dish or Directv, and they're pretty much disappearing on other satellites as well. I wouldn't bother.

I haven't been able to find out much about the IR9000, but the TS9000 receiver has embedded Conditional Access and will receive FTA channels. So I think you're OK.
You might ask for help on this forum which is a little closer to home:

sure, it's an mpeg2 qpsk compatible receiver, it will get FTA channels.

one more thing.is there a restriction on the decorder not to recieve peticuler salelite signals?
my one is techno sat IR 9000. it only recieve our loacal TV station - DialogTV.
please let me see your views.

um, Dialog TV is a paid tv service in your area. The IR means your box has built in Irdeto support, lyngsat shows Dialog TV as using Irdeto 2.
You will have to call the company directly, and find out if your box is compatible, and if they can send you an access card.
You should try and find a forum closer to where you live, we here in North America do things differently, we are required to buy the pay tv providers hardware to access their signals.
