NewSpace India Limited (NSIL) is a Public Sector Undertaking (PSU) of the Government of India and under Department of Space.[4] NSIL is responsible for producing, assembling and integrating the launch vehicle with the help of industry consortium. It was established on 6 March 2019 under the administrative control of the Department of Space (DoS) and the Company Act 2013. The main objective of NSIL is to scale up private sector participation in Indian space programmes.[5][6][7]
Objectives
NSIL was setup with the following objectives:[8]
- Transfer of Small Satellite technology to industry: NSIL will obtain license from DoS/ISRO and sub-license the same to industry
- Manufacture of Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV) in collaboration with private sector
- Production of Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) through Indian industry
- Production and marketing of Space-based products and services, including launch and application
- Transfer of technology developed by ISRO Centres and constituent units of DoS
- Marketing of spin-off technologies and products/services, both in India and abroad
Contracts
In 2022, NSIL executed a contract with OneWeb to launch 36 satellites to low Earth orbit for their satellite internet constellation. NSIL again successfully deployed another set of 36 OneWeb satellites on 26 March 2023.[9][10][11]
The Ministry of Defence signed a ₹3,000-crore agreement with NSIL, a subsidiary of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), for the procurement of the advanced communication satellite, GSAT 7B, to meet the requirements of the Indian Army.[4][12]
An agreement was reached between NSIL and Arianespace for a long-term collaboration to enable satellite launch missions. As part of the Memorandum of Understanding, Ariane 6 of Arianespace and the heavy lift launch vehicle LVM3 of ISRO will answer the demand for launching larger communication or earth observation satellites as well as satellites for mega constellations, thereby satisfying the needs of the global launch service market.[13]
