The Indian Space Association (ISpA) praised TRAI for its recommendations on satellite spectrum pricing, viewing them as a balance between government revenue and affordability for consumers.
The recommendations are seen as a progressive move to enable shared access and competition, aiming to bridge the digital divide in India.
However, the proposed spectrum charges, set at 4% of adjusted gross revenue, are higher than what satellite communication companies like Starlink had hoped.
