India has effectively frozen approvals for Elon Musk’s Starlink to begin commercial operations, due to concerns over the use of its satellite terminals in the Iran war, according to people familiar with the matter.Security agencies have withheld the final clearances Starlink needs to launch, they said. Reports that Starlink terminals were in use during the West Asia conflict despite the service not being licensed in Iran have heightened fears in Delhi about its ability to control a US-based internet operator during geopolitical tensions, they said.The impasse has also stalled a satellite-spectrum pricing proposal required for any commercial launch, whether by Starlink or its Indian competitors. DoT has finalised the framework, but it has not been sent to the Cabinet, the people said.
