The year 2024 is set to be the year when satellite broadband would become commercially available in India, especially now when the government has decided to give spectrum for satellite broadband services outside of auctions.

2024: A year of satellite broadband?

The passage of the Telecommunications Bill, 2023, in Parliament, and subsequent approval by the President, enabling the allocation of satellite airwaves, will expedite execution plans of key incumbents in India Bharti Group-backed One Web, Reliance's Jio Satellite Communications Ltd, and Elon Musk's Starlink-and entry of Amazon's Kuiper into the Indian market.

"One Web should launch sometime in the first half of next year," said Gopal Vittal, managing director and chief executive officer of Bharti Airtel, which will distribute One Web's satellite broadband services in India.
