Starlink Broadband India Faces Delay

The introduction of Starlink, Elon Musk’s satellite broadband service, in India may encounter delays due to the need to obtain approvals from national security agencies and India’s Ministry of Home Affairs. These additional approvals are required in addition to the necessary nods from IN-SPACe (Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre) and the Telecom Department.

While Starlink has already secured commercial permissions, the process has been stalled due to security concerns. Despite reportedly receiving internal approval from the Indian Telecom Department, the final clearance is pending. 

Starlink Broadband Price in India: 

Regarding the pricing of Starlink’s service in India, it is estimated to cost approximately Rs 1,58,000 for the first year and Rs 1,15,000 for subsequent years, inclusive of a 30% tax. Additionally, the base price for user equipment is expected to be around Rs 37,400, accompanied by a monthly service fee of Rs 7,425. 

Starlink Internet Speed in India 

Starlink typically offers download speeds ranging from 25 to 220 Mbps, with most users experiencing speeds exceeding 100 Mbps. Upload speeds typically fall between 5 and 20 Mbps. Leveraging LEO (Low Earth Orbit) satellites, Starlink ensures low-latency broadband connectivity regardless of the user’s location.
