cable isp residential india

The AS handle SEVENSTAR-AS is held by 7 Star Dot Com Pvt. Ltd, an Indian cable and DSL internet service provider.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries residential and business access traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries pointing to 7starcablenet.in and netnames such as SEVENSTAR, VIJAYAHIRE-DC-IN, and M7CPL-IN.
  • With 9728 IPv4 addresses announced across 22 prefixes and only 5 observed neighbours, the high address-to-neighbour ratio indicates an access or eyeball network rather than a transit provider.

Notable

  • Registrants include 7 STAR DOT COM Pvt. Ltd, 7 STAR CABLENET PRIVATE LIMITED, and SEVEN STAR DIGICOMM PRIVATE LIMITED, all consistent with the primary holder's corporate family.
  • The inventory is finely subdivided into multiple /22, /23, and /24 blocks, reflecting site-by-site segmentation typical of a regional cable operator managing distinct customer segments or geographic zones.

Reputation

Classification and threat

Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.

Spamhaus DROP

Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.

No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.

Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 443 networks and 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-24. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.

FBI IC3

No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.

IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
