'With this deal, we may see even 50 launches a year within the next few years.'
The appointment comes as Agnikul prepares for Mission 02, a flight that will attempt, for the first time on Indian soil, the recovery of an orbital-class rocket booster and the extension of a rocket's upper stage into an on-orbit platform.
This is the first deal by an Indian startup after the sector was opened to private companies in 2020.
