Increasing Space Missions and Investments

Published: May 2024

The global satellite launch vehicle market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 12.8% during the forecast period (2024–2031). The market growth is attributed to the rising number of space missions globally. Entry of private players into the space exploration industry has fastened the rate of mission and investment, which has positively impacted the satellite launch vehicle market. For instance, in December 2023, according to the Indian Department of Space, the Indian start-up space market seen an upward trend from just 1 start-up in the space sector in 2012, industry to 189 start-ups in 2023. The funding received by these start-ups reached a total of $124.7 million in 2023 from $67.2 million in 2021.

Moreover, India has upgraded its policies to leverage the most from its space capabilities. For instance, in February 2024, the Indian cabinet approves an amendment in the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) policy on the space sector. The policy aims to augment space capabilities; develop a flourishing commercial presence in space; use space as a driver of technology development and derived benefits in allied areas; pursue international relations and create an ecosystem for effective implementation of space applications among all stakeholders. Under the amended FDI policy, 100.0% FDI is allowed in the space sector with differentiation based on products and components.
