Nelco Ltd., a privately owned Indian company founded in 1940, provides connectivity and distribution services. Currently employing approximately 420 people, the company is headquartered in India and specializes in satellite communication (SatCom or VSAT) services, primarily delivering data connectivity solutions to enterprise clients nationwide. While formerly part of the Tata Group, it is now independently owned.
On September 5, 2025, Nelco formalized an agreement with the Department of School Education and Samagra Shiksha Axom to implement the ‘Hub and Spoke Model of Skill Education’ in Assam's government secondary schools. This collaboration involved a ₹2440 crore project, as detailed in a Memorandum of Agreement signed on the same day. Assam's Education Minister, Ranoj Pegu, commented on the agreement's potential to transform skill education in the state. Later, on September 18, 2025, media reports suggested Nelco planned to enter the satellite broadband business, causing a stock price increase and prompting a clarification from the company.
