The document outlines India's reforms to open up its space sector to private companies. It discusses the need for reforms due to growth in the global space economy dominated by private companies. The reforms aim to enable private sector participation through policies like allowing them to launch their own rockets and satellites, and utilize ISRO facilities. A key part of reforms is setting up IN-SPACe as the regulator and interface between private companies and ISRO. The reforms have received overwhelming response from private sector and are expected to boost growth of India's space industry and economy.

Make in India can be a path breaking campaign provided it is grounded by right policy measures and innovation ecosystem. Technology has a pivotal role in this and the efforts of the nation in promoting technological innovations have so far yielded limited success. Technology transfer requires easing FDI limits and other fiscal incentives. However, the past experience of technology transfers in military indicated failure to deliver by foreign partners. Liberalization as well as stringent conditions is hence important to make technology transfer through collaborations. Indian government has announced some fiscal incentives and welcomed collaborations. In the light of this, the need for developing competences for technology absorption has gained attention.

4. NEED FOR
REFORMS
The global space economy is
currently valued at about USD 360 1
billion. Despite being one among a
few spacefaring nations in the world,
India accounts for only about 2% of the
space economy.
Over the last 2 decades, the private
sector has played an increasingly
important role in other spacefaring
countries within the global space
economy. Companies like SpaceX, Blue
Origin, Virgin Galactic, and Arianespace
have revolutionized the space sector
by reducing costs and turnaround
time, with innovation and advanced
technology. In India however, players
within the private space industry
have been limited to being vendors or
suppliers to the government’s space
program.
Thus, there was a need to provide
scope for Non-Governmental Entities
(NGEs) for enhanced participation in
Indian space programme and playing
key roles to boost India’s market share
in Global Space Economy.

5. Our Honorable Prime Minister has
emphasized the need to promote
private sector activity in all high
technology areas including space, to
fully unlock the potential of India’s
youth and entrepreneurs.
To realize this vision, it is necessary to
enable private entities within the Indian
space sector to establish themselves as
independent players capable of end-
to-end space activities. Many Indian
private companies and start-ups have
been showing keen interest in space
activities, services, and applications,
and are requesting a conducive policy
environment for this.
Promoting the
private sector will
enable the Indian
space program
to remain cost
competitive within
the global space
market, and thus
create several jobs in
the space and other
related sectors.
Our Honorable Prime Minister is also
convinced of the potential catalytic
role that the space sector could play
for high-technology industries and
start-ups in the country.
The recent reforms have been warmly
welcomed by all stake holders and the
number of space sector players in India
continue to expand.

7. PRIME
MINISTER’S
VISION
The guiding light for this reform has
been the vision of our Honorable
Prime Minister. As our talisman, he
asserts that the benefits of space
technology should be made known
to every Indian citizen, who will in
turn become stakeholders in the
development of this sector.
He strongly believes that the optimal
utilization of space technologies can
revolutionize delivery of governance
services and boost developmental
efforts.
Our Honorable Prime Minister sees
‘outer space’ as an avenue to inspire
scientific cur iosity amongst the
youth and to encourage them to look
towards academic pursuits in STEM.
Above all, he maintains that the space
sector has the potential to incubate
a vibrant ecosystem of startups and
private industr ies. By becoming
a leading contributor to India’s
economic growth story, the space
sector is replicating the success seen
in the IT sector today. This would also
increase India’s share in the global
space market significantly.
It is our Honorable Prime Minister’s
conviction that India also needs to
actively participate in the emergence
of cutting- edge space technology, to
ensure national security and aligned
strategic interests.

11. Open up ISRO
Infrastructure and
Facilities
The reform also aims to make national
space infrastructure developed over
the years, available for use by the
private industry through a business
friendly mechanism.
Facilities pertaining
to testing, tracking
and telemetry,
launch-pads, and
laboratories, created
by ISRO, would also
enable the private
space industry to
climb the value chain.
A mechanism has been created, where
in industries can approach IN-SPACe
for utilizing the ISRO facilities.
Enable and promote
Non-Governmental
Entities (NGE) to carry
out independent space
activities
Provide a level playing field and
favorable regulatory environment for
players within the Indian private sector,
to allow them to become independent
actors in the space sector instead of
being solely vendors or suppliers to the
government program.
This can be achieved by enabling ease
of business through single-window
mechanisms, with predictable timelines.

agency for promoting the NGEs and to

The reforms have also given NSIL

15. Setting up of
IN-SPACE
To facilitate private sector participation, the government has created the Indian
National Space Promotion and Authorization Centre (IN-SPACe), as a single-
window, independent, nodal agency under Department of Space. Its main
mandate is to promote and enhance the role of Non-Government Entities (NGEs)
in the space sector through hand holding, support, and by providing them with
a level playing field. It will also authorize the use of ISRO facilities by private
companies, development of Indian satellite systems, and launch of rockets/
vehicles developed by the private sector.
Provide a stable
regulatory and policy
environment
The reforms have strengthened the policy-
making capacity of the Department of
Space and an exercise has been initiated
to create new business-friendly policy
framework for Space sector covering
remotesensing, satellite communication,
navigation, technology transfer, space
transportation, space situational
awareness, human space flight, etc.
The draft space policy has been reviewed
by Space Commission and consultation
with industry & inter-ministries completed.
The updated space policy has been
submitted for approval of government.

ISRO will also share best-practices,
protocols, and other relevant technical
expertise with the private sector to
enhance their capacity for space
activities.
The reforms have authorized the public
sector company NSIL to act as the
exclusive public-sector aggregator

18. IMPACT OF
REFORMS
1. Industries, start-ups, and academia
have warmly welcomed the space
sector reforms, and the new IN-SPACe
mechanism.
2. More than 150 proposals from
start-ups, MSMEs and industries have
already been received for future
consideration by IN-SPACe, illustrating
the overwhelming response to the
system.
Following the reforms, several Indian
space sector startups have been
able to raise venture capital for their
planned projects. Several new strat-ups
entered into space domain, the deep
tech & application area and started
interacting with Department of Space.
This depicts the rising confidence
amongst investors in the vibrant Indian
space sector and the expected impact
of this deregulation, as brought about
by the reforms.
To capture the small satellite
launching market ISRO has
developed a Small Satellite
Launch Vehicle (SSLV)
with a view to transfer the
technology to the industry. The
first development flight was
launched. And the technology
will be transferred to the industry
after successful qualification.
