Elon Musk’s Starlink hits a wall in India

Al Jazeera  

India has told Starlink, which is yet to get a licence, to refund clients and refrain from fresh orders. Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite internet venture has told its members that the Indian government has asked the company to refund all its pre-orders until it receives licences to operate in the country. SpaceX has told investors that Starlink is angling for a piece of a $1 trillion market made up of in-flight internet, maritime services, demand in China and India – and rural customers Business paused But the Indian government has advised people against subscribing to Starlink without a licence and ordered the company to refrain from taking bookings and rendering services. In India, Starlink had planned to “carry on the business of telecommunication services” including satellite broadband internet services, content storage and streaming, multimedia communication, among others. The company also said it will focus on “catalyzing rural development” in India through its broadband services, according to a company presentation shared by Bhargava on LinkedIn over the weekend.
