Bharti Airtel has signed a deal with SpaceX to offer Starlink’s satellite internet services in India, marking a major shift despite previous regulatory conflicts. This move could strengthen Airtel’s broadband offerings, especially in rural areas. The agreement is subject to regulatory approvals, while rival OneWeb, backed by Airtel, awaits spectrum allocation. The collaboration could reshape India’s satellite broadband landscape, with spectrum pricing and licensing policies still under discussion.
