After DoT, TRAI asks Starlink to stop taking pre-orders in India

India Today  

It has been a week since Elon Musk-backed broadband service Starlink stopped taking pre-orders in India. “Starlink Internet Services is required to desist from soliciting telecom business and collecting related feesetc, without having received necessary authorisation and adhering to relevant statutory provisions,” ET quoted TRAI in a directive dated December 7, 2021. TRAI, in the letter, noted that the “soliciting of business for the provision of broadband service has to be in accordance with extant statutory provisions related to telecom services.” Earlier this week, the company head for India, Sanjay Bhargava in a LinkedIn post, noted that Starlink aims to apply for a commercial license by January 31, 2022. Please check back for future availability in your area.” Until now, Starlink was taking pre-orders for satellite broadband connection service for a refundable deposit of $99.
