Musk's Starlink reapplies for India approval of satellite network, ET reports

SpaceX, the aerospace company founded by Elon Musk, has reportedly refiled an application for approval to operate its Starlink satellite internet service in India. The Economic Times cited sources familiar with the matter. This marks a renewed effort by the company to enter the Indian market, following previous applications that did not result in an operating license.

Starlink aims to provide broadband internet access via a constellation of low-Earth orbit satellites, with a particular focus on unserved and underserved areas. The company has faced regulatory hurdles in various countries, and its reapplication in India suggests it is addressing previous concerns or seeking to meet updated requirements from Indian authorities. Success in India could represent a significant expansion for Starlink's global reach.
