Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal met a delegation from satellite internet services provider Starlink to discuss their existing partnerships and future investment plans in India.
Billionaire Mukesh Ambani's Reliance Jio and telecom tycoon Sunil Bharti Mittal's Bharti Airtel have already announced partnership deals with SpaceX's Starlink.
The meeting took place amidst the delay in security clearance for Starlink operations in India and ongoing negotiations for a trade agreement between India and the United States.
Starlink's operations can begin only after obtaining a license, security clearance, and spectrum allocation from the Indian government.
