Musk's Starlink inks pact with Jio after rival Bharti

Tie-ups are subject to SpaceX receiving regulatory approval to sell Starlink in India
Billionaire Mukesh Ambani-controlled Jio Platforms Ltd. announced a surprise pact with SpaceX to offer Starlink Inc.'s satellite Internet services in India, a day after rival Bharti Airtel Ltd. unveiled a similar arrangement.
The twin deals essentially turn Elon Musk's Internet service from challenger to ally of India's powerful domestic wireless carriers, underscoring his growing influence across the globe as President Donald Trump's close adviser. It also marks a volte-face by Ambani's Jio and Bharti — controlled by tycoon Sunil Mittal — which were earlier opposed to the idea of Starlink getting airwaves cheaply.
