Jio Platforms Ltd has partnered with SpaceX to bring Starlink's internet services to India, contingent on regulatory approvals. The collaboration will allow Jio to offer Starlink solutions via its retail outlets and online platforms, with plans to provide equipment and customer service for installation. This partnership leverages Jio’s position as the largest mobile operator globally by data traffic and SpaceX's leadership in low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite operations. Together, they aim to deliver reliable broadband services to even the most remote and rural areas of India, enhancing Jio's existing broadband services like JioFiber and JioAirFiber. The partnership also explores other ways to strengthen India’s digital ecosystem. However, regulatory approvals from the Indian government and agencies such as IN-SPACe and DoT are still pending. The Indian space economy is expected to grow to $44 billion by 2033, contributing significantly to global market share.
