Musk accuses Ambani's online supporters of 'absurd hypocrisy', `ridiculous arguments'
The reality is that competition would greatly benefit the average citizen in India by giving them more choices, as it always does,says Elon Musk
On October 11, 2026, Elon Musk renewed his criticism of Mukesh Ambani regarding Starlink's entry into India. Musk accused Ambani's supporters of indulging in "absurd hypocrisy and hyperbole" by arguing that Starlink cannot compete with Ambani's low prices while simultaneously claiming it poses a strong competitive threat. Musk stated that competition from Starlink would benefit ordinary Indians by expanding consumer choice, and although it could lower Ambani's profits, Ambani is not going out of business.
Musk also emphasized that if Starlink's services are too expensive, consumers will not buy them, forcing the company to make pricing more affordable.
