India’s government approves a satellite spectrum allocation framework proposed by TRAI, clearing the way for non-terrestrial satellite communications providers to offer broadband services in the country.
The decision authorises a five-year spectrum allocation approach, which is meant to operationalise rules for satellite broadband. NDTV reports that the framework brings major planned and existing satellite players—Starlink, OneWeb, and Jio-Eutelsat—closer to launching services in India, subject to the regulatory framework being implemented.
Across the available coverage provided, the emphasis is on the government’s approval of the TRAI satellite spectrum framework and the timeline it creates for satellite broadband rollouts. No additional contrasting details, such as pricing, specific launch dates, technical constraints, or regulatory conditions beyond the five-year allocation, are included in the provided source material.
