Out of ideas - Comcast issue BGP peering with Tata

Depends on your definition of “RIR holder ship”.

ALL (legitimate) prefixes are delegated/registered by an RIR at some level.

However, some of them are non-contract and/or non-paid. APNIC is, I believe, the only RIR that eliminated all non-contract registrants. I’m not sure of the exact situation in LACNIC or AFRINIC, but I believe it is generally the same as RIPE and ARIN. Non-contract (for lack of a better term) prefixes cannot get IRR or RPKI services from their RIRs, and usually don’t come with membership (voting rights). Otherwise, they are basically treated the same as other registrations, though they also don’t pay fees.

It is recommended to create RPKI ROA objects instead. In rare cases if that's not possible, 'route' and 'route6' must be created in the authoritative registry - AfriNIC, APNIC, ARIN, LACNIC, RIPE, RIPE, NIC.br or IDNIC.
