DoT set to finalise satellite spectrum rules; first-come-first-serve model likely
India's Department of Telecommunications is finalizing rules for satellite spectrum allocation under the Telecommunications Act, expected to be shared on a first-come-first-served basis. Eutelsat OneWeb, Jio-SES, and Starlink await final clearance to begin or test commercial services. The new authorization regime follows TRAI recommendations, including a 4% AGR spectrum usage fee for five years.
