Global, local players seek ways to lower cost of satellite broadband services

Satcom players in India say they can’t directly lease bandwidth capacity from foreign satellite operators. They have to go via DoS, which pushes up final leasing costs by as much as 15-20%, making satellite internet services expensive. In fact, satellite bandwidth leasing cost in India at around Rs 75,000 per Mbps per month is 10 times the global average of Rs 7,500.
