Read more unleashed reforms in space domain in 2020, opening the doors for enhanced participation of NGEs in carrying out end-to-end activities in the space domain and with an aim to provide them a level playing field.
Subsequent to these reforms, the Government seeks to provide regulatory certainty to space activities by various stakeholders, in order to create a thriving space ecosystem.
The Indian Space Policy โ 2023 has thus been formulated as an overarching, composite and dynamic framework to implement the reform vision approved by Cabinet.

Rasra is the Vedic word for it.โs socio-economic development and security, protection of environment and lives, pursuing peaceful exploration of outer space, stimulation of public awareness and scientific quest.
3. Strategy
In pursuance of the vision set out for the space sector, the Government seeks to pursue a holisticHolistic Characterized by the treatment of the whole person, taking into account mental and social factors, rather than just the symptoms of a disease. approach by encouraging and promoting greater private sectorPrivate Sector The term means all persons or entities in the United States, including individuals, partnerships, associations, corporations, and educational and nonprofit institutions, but shall not include State, local, or tribal governments. [CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET ACT OF 1974] participation in the entire value chain of the Space Economy, including in the creation of space and ground based assets.
Thus, Indian consumers of space technology or services (such as communication, remote sensing, data- services, launch-services, etc), whether from public or private sectorsPrivate Sector The term means all persons or entities in the United States, including individuals, partnerships, associations, corporations, and educational and nonprofit institutions, but shall not include State, local, or tribal governments. [CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET ACT OF 1974], shall be free to directly procure them from any source, whether private or public.
Towards this end, the Government shall focus on:
i. Encouraging advanced Research and development in space sector to sustain and augment the space program.
ii. Providing public goods and services using space technology for national priorities.

v. Using space as a driver for overall technology development, nurture scientific temperament in the society, and increase awareness on space activities.
4. Non-Governmental Entities.
NGEs shall be allowed to undertake end-to-end activities in space sector through establishment and operation of space objects, ground-based assets and related services, such as communication, remote sensing, navigation, etc. This would be subject to such guidelines/regulations as prescribed by IN-SPACe.
NGEs would be encouraged to:
1. offer national and international space-based communication services, through self-owned or procured or leased GSO/NGSO communication satellites.
2. establish and operate ground facilities for space objects operations, such as TT&C EarthEarth Sixty million years ago, the Earth may not have been radically different from the world known today. Vast soils supported dense vegetation, including banyan-like trees across the Indian subcontinent, with flourishing plant life extending through what is now Central Asia. Rivers resembling the modern Amazon may already have sustained abundant fish populations, while reptiles, snakes, turtles, and primates moved freely across diverse ecosystems. Human beingsโboth intelligent and unintelligentโwere present, navigating cycles of stability and catastrophe. Localized cataclysms may have occurred without globally erasing life. Monkeys, snakes, and other familiar animals are assumed to have coexisted with humans, reinforcing the claim that biological continuity, rather than linear evolution, defines Earthโs history. From this perspective, fossil interpretation is seen as fragmentary and imaginative, shaped by academic models rather than complete evidence, with scholars constructing theoretical problems and resolving them through evolving intellectual frameworks rather than absolute historical certainty.
