Alan Musk gets open exemption, Indian companies are being tightened… what is the reason?

Shankar Sharma was also angry with the exemption being given by the Government of India to Allen Musk and his companies. He asked, “What is special in Starlink? It is a low-level, low-technical product… There is nothing special in this.”

His question was that when Indian companies face heavy license fees and rules, why is Alan Musk being given such an easy way in India? Sharma said that Indian companies are achieving access to capital and technology only by setting up joint enterprises with foreign companies, but they themselves are not forming strong technology basis.

Alan Musk’s Starlink expanded in India

Elon Musk’s Starlink recently announced a partnership with Reliance Jio and Airtel to introduce internet services in various parts of India.

Starlink aims to strengthen internet connectivity in low -populated and rural areas, where good service has not yet reached. Starlink membership costs around $ 110 per month in the US. At the same time, Jio’s cheapest internet service in India is available at the lowest price in a year.

Why are Musk trying to grow business in India?

Alan Musk has been trying to enter the Indian market for a long time. According to sources, in a meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Washington DC last month, he emphasized the benefits of increasing internet access to India. His intention is to increase its business in India with the most populous country in the world.

Now it seems that Musk’s strategy has worked, as SpaceX has signed the agreement with India’s two largest telecom companies – Jio and Airtel. Starlink service will soon be launched across the country.
