Satcom rollout to begin after Trai finalises spectrum prices: Jyotiraditya Scindia

Satellite broadband services will begin in the country once companies finalise their rollout plan and regulator Trai suggests spectrum prices, Union Telecom Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia said on Thursday.

Speaking to reporters at the India Mobile Congress 2025, the minister said that two Satcom players have been given licences for Satcom services, and a Letter of Intent (LoI) has been issued to another.

“It depends on the players in terms of how quickly they can roll out their execution strategy. There is one issue that Trai has to still finalise — the spectrum pricing. That is the pending part, and that regulator will do,” Scindia said.
