New licensing trouble for Elon Musk-owned Starlink, here’s what may delay the launch
Elon Musk-owned Starlink's satcom services in India may be delayed due to a licensing problem. The communications ministry is seeking clarity from the Department for Promotion of Industry & Internal Trade (DPIIT) regarding foreign investment policy. Starlink has refused to disclose full shareholding details of SpaceX, citing US privacy laws. The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) wants to know if approval should be granted based on Starlink's declaration.
