Hyderabad-based Skyroot Aerospace aims to launch a rocket every three months next year, followed by one every month from 2027 onwards, according to CNBC TV reports.
Hyderabad-based spacetech startup Skyroot Aerospace is preparing for its first full-scale commercial satellite mission in January 2026.
The company aims to ramp up launches to one every three months next year, scaling to monthly launches by 2027.
Co-founder and CEO Pawan Chandana said each launch is expected to generate around $5 million in revenue, roughly double the production cost of a rocket.
“Building one rocket currently takes eight to nine months and costs $2–3 million, but both will drop as we scale,” he told Mint.
Founded in 2018, Skyroot has raised $99.8 million from investors including Temasek and GIC.
The move follows Agnikul’s successful Agnibaan launch in May 2024 — the world’s first rocket with a single-piece 3D-printed enginefrom a private pad in Chennai.
