NEW DELHI, June 6 (Reuters) - Elon Musk's Starlink has received a key licence from India's telecoms ministry, sources with knowledge of the matter told Reuters on Friday, clearing a major hurdle for the satellite provider and taking it closer to launching commercial operations in India.
Starlink is the third company to get a licence from India's Department of Telecommunications, which has approved similar applications by Eutelsat's ETL.PA OneWeb and Reliance Jio to provide services in the country.
