Ahead of India launch, Starlink gains 1 million new users in 7 weeks: Here is when it may launch here

Elon Musk’s satellite internet venture, Starlink, is all set to kickstart its services in India, awaiting the regulatory approvals by the Indian authorities. However, Starlink is globally expanding at a rapid pace, officially surpassing 9 million active customers worldwide as of December 2025. The milestone is notable due to the pace at which the company achieved such great expansion — its latest one million users were onboarded in less than seven weeks, which is approximately equivalent to adding 20,000 new subscribers every single day.
