India Finalizes Spectrum Plan for Satellite Internet, Regulatory Approvals Pending

India's Department of Telecommunications has released the National Frequency Allocation Plan 2025, designating spectrum bands for satellite internet services. While companies like Starlink and OneWeb hold licenses, the official launch awaits final regulatory approvals. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India has proposed spectrum pricing based on adjusted gross revenue and subscriber fees, aiming to boost rural access, a proposal the DoT is still processing despite TRAI's reiteration.
