I believe it matches your latest requirements for both Cable Yes && Pay TV && !ADS and Cable Yes && !Pay TV && !ADS IF it is the only thing occurring on a line with for the rest only spaces and/or the text\noUE behind it
Code:
sed 's/^\([[:blank:]]*Cable Yes && !\{0,1\}Pay TV && !ADS\) \{8\}\([[:blank:]]*\(\\noUE\)\{0,1\}[[:blank:]]*\)$/\1 \&\& !MDS\2/' file
or perhaps you mean:
Code:
sed 's/^\([[:blank:]]*Cable Yes && !\{0,1\}Pay TV && !ADS\)[[:blank:]]\{1,8\}/\1 \&\& !MDS/' file

I would like to mention below points:
I have tried the code by keeping the code in final.sh (as ascript). When i did not used nawk (means when i am using awk ), i got the the awk error lines which i posted in earlier post. Also the file did not modified.

awk '/\<mpath${CURR_MP}\>/{print $1 $2}' multipath
