Elon Musk’s company Starlink is preparing to launch its satellite internet service in Pakistan. The company has registered itself in Pakistan and is now waiting for the license. Meanwhile, information about the possible plan of Starlink in Pakistan has come to light. Many people are not happy seeing its cost. Even if a user takes the base plan, initially he will have to pay more than one lakh Pakistani rupees.
Installation is also very expensive
According to media reports, the price of Starlink plan for home use can be 6,800-28,000 Pakistani rupees per month. In this, users will get speed of 50-250Mbps. Apart from this, the cost of hardware required to avail Starlink service will be 97,000 Pakistani rupees (about 30,000 rupees in Indian currency). It requires a satellite dish for installation and a modem for connection. Seeing this price, a social media user wrote that this seems to be a plan of 200 years.
Commercial pricing even more expensive
Starlink’s service will be even more expensive for commercial use. For speed of 100-500 Mbps, commercial users will have to pay 80,000-95,000 Pakistani rupees every month. Installation will also be expensive for commercial users and they may have to pay 2.20 lakh Pakistani rupees for it. The company provides unlimited data in every plan.
What is the pricing in other countries
Starlink service is the cheapest in Zambia. Here the user has to pay a monthly subscription of around 2,000 Indian rupees. In America, users have to pay around Rs 10,000 for monthly subscription, in Malaysia around Rs 3,800, in Australia around Rs 7,800 and in Austria around Rs 4,700.
Starlink service may be launched in India soon
Starlink service may start soon in India. At present, preparations are underway for spectrum allocation to the company. It is expected to be completed this month. If this happens then the company can launch its services in India by February. Jio and Airtel will also launch satellite internet service in India.
