Starlink gets nod for satellite web services
Hindustan Times Delhi
|May 08, 2025
Elon Musk's Starlink has received government approval to operate satellite internet services in India, according to two officials aware of the development.
NEW DELHI:
The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has issued a letter of intent after the company agreed to comply with licensing conditions critical to national security, one of the officials said.
The approval positions Starlink to join Eutelsat OneWeb and the Jio-SES joint venture in the satellite internet market. The timing is notable—it comes just a day after the government tightened security norms for satellite internet firms, mandating data localisation, lawful interception, gateway security clearance, and local manufacturing requirements.
