Both deals were struck with Musk’s company just hours apart, despite Jio having previously clashed with the Indian government regarding Musk’s plans. Elon Musk’s SpaceX has reached a deal with India’s largest telecoms platform Reliance Jio, just one day after a similar pact was struck with the country’s second most popular telecoms provider Airtel. Starlink, which is operated by Musk’s private space technology company SpaceX, provides high-speed internet to remote parts of the world using low Earth orbit satellites. The deal is still subject to regulatory approvals and SpaceX will have to receive authorisation to sell Starlink services in India. Reliance Jio previously clashed with Starlink over how India should grant spectrum for its satellite services.
