As president of the VSAT Association, he took up the issue on
behalf of the industry to facilitate access to Ku and C bands, and foreign
satellite connectivity. He was the first to take on the challenge of a new
industry-the VSAT segment-and assumed office as president and managing
director of Hughes Escorts Communications in July 1995.
He developed this industry segment in India, because of which
his company maintains an early entrant advantage. Previous to Hughes, Ullal was
with IBM for 19 years. His other major assignments were with DCM Data Products,
Hewlett-Packard division of Blue Star, Modi Olivetti and Alcatel Modi.
He is a member of the Telecom Committee of Ficci, Assocham and
