Skyroot joins race for private low-orbit satellite launches

The Indian startup is positioning itself alongside private U.S. and Chinese companies in low-orbit launch competition.

CNBC Markets says Indian private launch company Skyroot is moving into the low-orbit satellite launch race.

The outlet frames the effort as part of a broader push that is placing India alongside private companies from the United States and China.

Skyroot’s inclusion highlights how more countries are participating in commercial orbital launch activity, rather than relying only on government programs.

CNBC World’s Inside India newsletter covers the same development, noting Skyroot’s role in private orbital launches.
