The department of telecommunications (DoT) is unlikely to issue any provisional or interim spectrum to companies such as Eutelsat OneWeb and Jio to commercially roll out their satellite internet services in the country, people in the know said. The government is expected to wait for the recommendations of the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) before it decides to allocate spectrum to the satellite firms administratively.
