Elon Musk's Starlink has obtained a crucial license from India's Department of Telecommunications, enabling it to offer satellite-based internet services across the country. This approval positions Starlink as the third operator in India's satellite internet sector, following Reliance Jio and Bharti's OneWeb. The license comes after prolonged regulatory delays since 2022, primarily due to national security concerns. Starlink's entry is expected to enhance internet connectivity in remote and underserved regions, aligning with India's digital inclusion goals. The development also intensifies competition in the satellite internet market, potentially reshaping the country's broadband landscape. (PC: Bloomberg)
