  • The Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre (IN-SPACe) invited Expressions of Interest (EoI) for the transfer of technology of the Launch Vehicle Mark-3 (LVM3) to private Indian companies.
  • LVM3, also known as Bahubali, is India's heaviest and most powerful operational launch vehicle and is a three-stage rocket developed by the ISRO.
  • LVM3 was used to launch Chandrayaan-2 and Chandrayaan-3 and placed 72 satellites of OneWeb into orbit during 2022 and 2023.
  • Selected companies will receive technical assistance and infrastructure support from ISRO for up to 42 months or until they manufacture and launch two LVM3 rockets, whichever is earlier.
  • India announced space sector reforms in 2020 to increase private participation in launch services and enable ISRO to focus on advanced missions such as Gaganyaan.
