Starlink has shared the pricing for residential satellite internet service in India on their official website. The Rs. 8,600 per month fee will include unlimited data, a 30-day trial and weather resilient service that guarantees “higher than 99.9% uptime.”
There’s also a hardware cost of Rs. 34,000 during installation.
The website hasn’t yet revealed the price for its business plan in the country.
Earlier in July this year, India’s space regulator granted Starlink the license to launch commercial operations. The Elon Musk-led firm had been waiting since 2022 for complete permissions.
The firm will now be competing with Jio-SES and Eutelsat’s OneWeb here.
The government still hasn’t announced whether the satellite spectrum will be allocated to these companies or if there will be an auction.
Once it has secured spectrum, Starlink has to set up ground infrastructure and conduct security tests and trials. The company reportedly started running technical demos and security tests in October.
