Musk’s Starlink receives final regulatory nod to launch in India: Report

Elon Musk-led Starlink has secured the final regulatory approval needed to start commercial operations in India, as per a report by Reuters. Citing its three sources familiar with the matter, Reuters reported that the clearance came from India’s space regulator, ending a long wait for the satellite internet provider to enter the Indian market.

Last month, Starlink received a key licence from the Department of Telecommunications (DoT). However, it was still awaiting a go-ahead from the Department of Space, which has now reportedly granted the approval. This marks the end of all major regulatory requirements for the company.
