Starlink Price In India: Elon Musk May Launch Satcom Plans At Rs 3,000-4,200 Per Month, Says Report

Last Updated: Elon Musk's Starlink might commence operations in India within the next two months after receiving its licence last week. Even as Elon Musk-owned Starlink has received a licence for satellite communication (satcom) services in India, speculations are rife about its prices in the country. According to the latest report by Business Standard citing sources, Starlink is expected to launch its services at monthly subscription charges between Rs 3,000 and Rs 4,200. Its kit, which includes a satellite dish and a Wi-Fi router, is also likely to be at about Rs 33,000. This is in contrast with the recent reports that indicated that Starlink is expected to debut in India with promotional unlimited data plans priced below $10 per month – nearly Rs 850. Earlier estimates had suggested Rs 3,000-Rs 7,000 per month. These are the speculations, and the exact official prices are yet to be known. According to the BS report, Starlink has so far prices its services at two-three times of traditional telcos in both high-income countries like the US and developing markets like Kenya or Nigeria. 'The company doesn't have much gain by dropping the price to attract more customers as internet capacity from satellite will remain capped," the report said citing people in the know. High-Speed Internet for Remote India Starlink operates a constellation of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites positioned just 550 km above the Earth – significantly closer than traditional geostationary satellites – enabling faster, low-latency internet access. The system has already been deployed in over 70 countries and aims to expand to the most remote and disaster-prone regions globally. SpaceX has already deployed approximately 7,000 LEO satellites globally and aims to increase this to over 40,000, enabling internet access even in the most remote and challenging terrains – from conflict zones to disaster-stricken areas. When Will Starlink Satellite Communication Services Start in India? Elon Musk-owned Starlink has received a licence for satellite communication (satcom) services in India. It comes after the government last month had issued a letter of intent (LoI) to the entity. Before launching its services, Starlink still needs approval from the Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre (IN-SPACe) and must be allocated spectrum by the government. According to a PTI report, Starlink will be granted trial spectrum within about two weeks. According to an ANI report citing sources, Starlink is preparing to commence operations in India within the next two months after receiving its licence last week. Starlink's hardware will be available at retail outlets of telecom operators Bharti Airtel and Reliance Jio. In April, Starlink signed pacts with Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel, which together control more than 70 per cent of the country's telecom market, to bring the US satellite internet giant's services to India. Starlink has become the third company to secure a satcom licence from the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), after Eutelsat's OneWeb and Reliance Jio.

Maldives Names Katrina Kaif Global Tourism Ambassador Amid Renewed Ties With India

Last Updated: The timing of the announcement is also crucial as it comes just ahead of the anticipated visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the Maldives Maldives has appointed Bollywood superstar Katrina Kaif as its new Global Tourism Ambassador in a significant move aimed at enhancing its tourism appeal. The announcement was made on Tuesday by the Maldives Marketing and Public Relations Corporation (MMPRC), which expressed its excitement about the collaboration with one of the most recognisable faces in the Indian film industry. 'Having Katrina Kaif as our Global Brand Ambassador is a moment of great pride for us," said Thoyyib Mohamed, managing director of MMPRC. 'Her popularity, combined with her influence in the global entertainment industry, will undoubtedly help us attract more visitors from across the world, especially from India." Visit Maldives Unveils Katrina Kaif as Global Brand Ambassador for the Sunny Side of Life. — Visit Maldives (@visitmaldives) June 10, 2025 Speaking about her new role as the Sunny Side of Life's Global Brand Ambassador, Kaif said: 'The Maldives represents the pinnacle of luxury and natural beauty—a place where elegance meets tranquillity. I'm honoured to be chosen as the face of the Sunny Side of Life. This collaboration is about bringing the finest travel experiences to global audiences, and I'm excited to help people around the world discover the unique charm and world-class offerings of this extraordinary destination." Kaif's appointment comes at a pivotal time as the Indian subcontinent remains a key source of tourists for the island nation. The Maldives, known for its crystal-clear waters, luxury resorts, and serene beaches, has long been a favoured destination for Indian travellers and Kaif, with her massive fan base across India and globally, is expected to play a key role in further boosting the Maldives' tourism profile. The situation worsened last year when PM Modi posted a series of photos on social media, showing him snorkelling, strolling on a white-sand beach and lounging in a chair next to turquoise waters in Lakshadweep. As he praised the pristine lesser-known and remote Indian archipelago that the government believes has untapped potential for tourism, his photos stirred a storm in Maldives as some saw the tourism campaign as an attempt to draw visitors away from their country. Three senior Maldives officials reacted to PM Modi's post by calling him names, while many other Maldivians insulted Indian tourists on social media. This led to retaliation by Indian tourists who cancelled their holidays to the Maldives, hitting Male where it hurt the most. Finally, as Muizzu visited India in October, the two nations seemed to finally be resetting their ties. India has extended a $50 million treasury‐bill rollover interest‑free to support Maldives' fiscal reforms and help address its debt pressures, re‑affirming its 'Neighbourhood First" policy.

Bengaluru gold smuggling case: After ED and CBI probes, Kannada actor Ranya Rao now faces I-T investigation

The Income Tax (I-T) department will investigate the wealth of Kannada actor Ranya Rao, who was arrested in a gold smuggling case, with a special court for economic offences in Bengaluru Monday allowing its application to question her in prison. The special court dismissed the objections raised by Rao's lawyer and permitted the I-T department to question her in prison from 10 am to 5 pm between June 11 and June 13. The assistant director of I-T (Investigations) applied last week seeking court permission to record the statement of Rao, 33, at the Bengaluru Central Prison regarding her earnings from alleged gold smuggling activities. The I-T department argued that the actor, who was arrested on March 3 from the Bengaluru International Airport for smuggling 14.2 kg of gold worth Rs 12.56 crore, was involved in the smuggling activity by using resources generated from 'unexplained sources and cash'. It sought to probe the unexplained sources by recording her statement in prison over a three-day period. B S Girish, the counsel for Rao, argued that the provisions of the Customs Act and the I-T Act are distinct, and so she cannot be compelled to give a statement under the provisions of the I-T Act, which would be contrary to Article 22 of the Constitution. The special public prosecutor of the I-T department, however, argued that I-T authorities are empowered to investigate and that she needs to be probed about the huge cash she allegedly mobilised and circulated for acquiring and selling gold from Dubai. 'The objections of the accused No.1 as to the statement U/s.131(1) of the Act is contrary to Article 22 of the Indian Constitution cannot be accepted as the Act very much permits the recording of statement as a part of investigation, in view of the applicant being vested with powers of a civil court,' the special court ruled Monday. 'The other objections as to the Customs Act and IT Act being distinct enactments in itself will not come in the way to permit the applicant/Department to investigate into the allegations against the accused No.1 on the basis of credible information,' the special court said. Ranya Rao gold smuggling case timeline On May 3, The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) arrested Rao from the airport on her arrival from Dubai with concealed on her body. On March 9, the DRI arrested Telugu actor Tarun Konduru, a US passport holder, after he was identified as an alleged accomplice of Rao in the gold smuggling racket. On March 26, the DRI arrested Sahil Jain, 27, a hawala dealer and associate of Rao, who allegedly received the gold smuggled by the actors and transferred funds through the hawala route to Dubai for the purchase of more gold. The DRI alleged that Jain played a central role in disposing of 49.6 kg of gold worth Rs 40.13 crore, smuggled from Dubai by Rao, between November 2024 and February 2025. It also claimed that Jain transferred Rs 39.39 crore of Rao's earnings to Dubai. Rao is the stepdaughter of the senior Karnataka IPS officer K Ramachandra Rao. She is alleged to have used airport protocol services available to her father to escape customs checks and detection at the Bengaluru airport on arrival from Dubai. The DRI also alleged that Rao and her associates smuggled 100 kg of gold in the 2024-25 period. It said Jain is part of a sophisticated smuggling network operating in India and abroad. A prosecution complaint was filed against him by the agency in a Kolkata court on March 5, 202, in a case involving the smuggling of 41.64 kg of gold. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) are also investigating the gold smuggling case from criminal and money laundering angles and have registered cases. The ED recently carried out searches on properties, including offices of an education trust belonging to Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara on the grounds that there had been monetary transactions between the trust and Rao. The trust, headquartered in Tumakuru in Karnataka, is alleged to have made a payment of Rs 40 lakh towards her credit card bills. Courts in Bengaluru granted Rao, Konduru, and Jain statutory bail after the DRI failed to file prosecution complaints (chargesheets) against them within 60 days of their arrest. However, the accused trio remain in prison on account of the Union Department of Revenue invoking the Conservation of Foreign Exchange and Prevention of Smuggling Activities (COFEPOSA) Act, 1974, against them on April 22. The COFEPOSA Act allows the preventive detention of persons for a period of up to one year. Last month, her mother H P Rohini filed a habeas corpus plea in the Karnataka High Court over the continued detention of her daughter. The matter was, however, adjourned by two weeks on June 3 after the court was informed that the advisory panel for confirming the COFEPOSA detention order of Rao was yet to meet.
