These broad networks, which currently include 7000 satellites and are extended to more than 40,000.

Satellite internet service is quite expensive than fiber-optic
Earlier this year, Mukesh Ambani’s company Reliance Jio and Sunil Mittal’s company Bharti Airtel made deals to distribute Starlink’s satellite internet service across India and increase their network coverage. Despite the frequent efforts to obtain a Saatcom license in India, Starlink application was pending. Security agencies had expressed concern and sought additional information about the service. The cost of satellite-based home internet connectivity is much higher than the current fiber-optic solution, which cost about 10 times more. In addition, fiber-based broadband provides better speed than satellite communication service.
