India’s space-technology startup ecosystem has grown significantly, with around 440 startups registered on the DPIIT Startup India portal.

The growing number of private ventures highlights the expanding role of startups in India’s space sector, alongside established institutions and organisations.
These companies are contributing to a wider space-tech ecosystem, creating opportunities across emerging technologies and commercial space applications.
The growth of space startups also reflects India’s broader efforts to encourage private-sector participation, innovation and entrepreneurship in the space economy.
With more startups entering the sector, India’s space ecosystem is increasingly positioned to support new technologies, business models and commercial opportunities while strengthening the country’s capabilities in the global space industry.
