Elon Musk-owned Starlink to get nod for space broadband services soon

NEW DELHI: The US-based Starlink is expected to receive a nod for offering space broadband services in India in the “next few days” following a clarification by the billionaire Elon Musk-owned company to the Department for Promotion of Industry & Internal Trade (DPIIT) on shareholding pattern, according to sources.

“Starlink replied to the Department for Promotion of Industry & Internal Trade, and in next few days or by the end of this month, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) may issue a Letter of Intent (LoI) to Starlink,” a source familiar with the matter said.
