Inside ISRO's Busy Schedule To Redefine India In Space

After the remarkable success of astronaut Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla's 18-day mission to the International Space Station, the Indian space agency has a busy year ahead. Currently, it is gathering momentum to celebrate the second National Space Day on August 23 at Bharat Mandapam. In a landmark year for India's space program, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is gearing up for an ambitious slate of missions that will redefine the country's position in global space exploration. Speaking exclusively to NDTV, V Narayanan, Chairman of ISRO, outlined a packed schedule that includes nine rocket launches, the rollout of industry-built launch vehicles, and the first uncrewed mission under the Gaganyaan human spaceflight program. "This year is declared as the Gaganyaan year," said Mr Narayanan. "We will have the first uncrewed mission by this year, December. That is what the target is. A robot will go. And, you know, Honourable Prime Minister has rolled out the space sector reform. Based on that, we have assigned five rockets to the industrial consortium of Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) and L&T Corporation." The uncrewed Gaganyaan mission, scheduled for December 2025, will carry Vyomitra, a humanoid robot designed to simulate human responses in space. This mission marks a critical milestone in India's journey toward sending astronauts into orbit, with two additional uncrewed missions planned for next year and a crewed mission targeted for the first quarter of 2027. "The G1, first uncrewed mission, we have targeted this December, that is on track," Mr Narayanan confirmed. "And then, followed by two uncrewed missions next year, depending on how it does, followed by the crewed mission in the first quarter of 2027." In addition to Gaganyaan, ISRO is rolling out the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV N1) rocket, the first launch vehicle built entirely by the Indian industry under the new space sector reforms. Developed by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) and Larsen & Toubro (L&T), the N1 rocket will carry a technology demonstration satellite featuring cutting-edge innovations. "The first rocket is going to roll out, called N1 rocket, the PSLV N1 rocket," said Mr Narayanan. "In that, we are going to launch a technologically advanced demonstration satellite in which we are going to demonstrate a lot of new technologies, including electric propulsion and quantum." The year's launch manifest also includes several other key missions: Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV) missions, aimed at providing cost-effective access to space for small payloads. Oceansat, a satellite designed for oceanographic studies and climate monitoring. NAVIC NVS-03, part of India's regional navigation satellite system, which enhances positioning accuracy for civilian and military applications. Adding to the excitement is a major commercial launch for an American company. ISRO will deploy the Bluebird 2, a 6,500 kg communication satellite, using its heavy-lift Launch Vehicle Mark-3 (LVM-3) rocket. This launch is expected to take place between December 2025 and January 2026. "Before this financial year, that is going to be executed," Mr Narayanan said. "Most likely, in the December-January time frame, this will be executed. The Bluebird 2, a 6500 kg communication satellite of the US, will be lifted off and placed in orbit by our LVM3 vehicle." The successful launch of the NISAR mission earlier this year, a joint Earth observation satellite developed with NASA, has further energised ISRO's workforce. The mission's success has been a morale booster, reinforcing confidence in the organization's ability to deliver on its ambitious goals. "In fact, the recent success of the NISAR mission has highly motivated the entire team," Mr Narayanan noted. "And the team is so energised, I am confident it will deliver whatever target we have set for this year." The Gaganyaan program, India's flagship human spaceflight initiative, is particularly complex and technologically demanding. It involves developing life support systems, crew modules, and safety protocols that meet international standards. Despite the challenges, ISRO remains committed to its timeline. "Gaganyaan is a technologically advanced and complex mission," said Mr Narayanan. "And I will tell you the team, the entire team is working 24X7 with a single-minded devotion." When asked about his work ethic, Mr Narayanan humbly replied, "I sleep very little. So, most of us do whatever is required for the country and the organisation. And yes, with a minimal level of sleep." The reforms initiated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi have opened up India's space sector to private industry, allowing companies like HAL and L&T to take on greater roles in manufacturing and innovation. This shift is expected to accelerate India's capabilities and competitiveness in the global space market. With nine launches planned, including missions that span technology demonstration, commercial payloads, and human spaceflight, ISRO's calendar for 2025 is one of its busiest ever. The organization's ability to execute this ambitious agenda will be closely watched by the global space community.

Fi Money Launches "Magic Lens" to Revolutionise How Users Track Their Full Net Worth

VMPL Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], August 20: Fi Money, India's leading AI-powered money management platform, today announced the launch of Magic Lens, a category-first feature that allows users to instantly add overlooked assets to their net worth. With a simple photo or screenshot, Magic Lens leverages advanced AI to identify and value everything from gold jewelry and collectables to cryptocurrency, ESOPs, and vehicles, giving users a comprehensive and true picture of their net worth. This innovative feature fills a major gap in personal finance. While traditional apps focus on bank accounts and mutual funds, they often overlook a large part of an individual's wealth, such as physical or non-traditional assets. Magic Lens achieves this by creating a single, unified financial dashboard where users can view and manage their entire portfolio. "At Fi Money, we've always believed that managing your wealth should feel effortless. Yet for many, a financial dashboard still shows only part of the story. Magic Lens changes that, letting you capture and value everything from family gold and a classic watch to ESOPs and crypto holdings, all in one secure view. It's about recognising that what you truly own goes beyond bank balances and investments, and giving you the clarity to see it all together," said Sujith Narayanan, Co-Founder of Fi Money. How Magic Lens Works Magic Lens makes tracking these assets simple and intuitive: * Snap or Upload: Users take a photo or screenshot of any asset. * Identify and Value: The AI instantly identifies the asset and provides an estimated value, factoring in depreciation based on its condition and age. * Approve and Add: Users can edit or approve the value before adding it to their net worth. The launch of Magic Lens follows Fi's recent successful launch of the MCP Server, a protocol that connects consolidated financial data to AI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini for smarter financial conversations. By integrating new wealth-building assets, Fi is creating a "one-home-for-everything" financial experience that bridges the gap between how people build wealth today and how they track it. Users retain full control over their data, with the ability to edit, delete, and manually update asset values at any time. This ensures accuracy and gives users full transparency and control over their entire financial dashboard. About Fi Money Fi Money is an integrated financial services platform that helps users Save, Pay, Track, Invest and Borrow from a single app. Fi provides a range of products in partnership with Federal Bank and other regulated entities to provide new-age financial features for its users. These features range from Saving Accounts & Instant Loans to US Stock investments & Credit Cards. Founded in 2019, the Bangalore-based fintech company is the brainchild of Sujith Narayanan & Sumit Gwalani, ex-Googlers who pioneered GPay in India as Tez. Learn more at:

80000 fired, 72% less recruitment... Is the IT sector with 72 lakh employees sinking?

80000 fired, 72% less recruitment... Is the IT sector with 72 lakh employees sinking? The global tech industry is changing rapidly, but this big change is making people in the industry unemployed. We are seeing its effect in India as well. If we talk only about the year 2025, then this year has not been special for tech jobs at the global level, India's IT companies are an example of this. Even experienced people are being fired from IT companies. Why is pressure on Indian IT companies increasing? The Indian IT sector employs 73 lakh people, but it is facing shocks at this time. According to brokerage firm Kotak Institutional Equities, large IT services firms have registered a decline in the fourth quarter of FY 2025. This has happened for the first time since June 2020, i.e. during the time of Covid. Will layoffs continue? The only financial year in which large scale recruitment was seen in the IT sector is 2022. Since then, recruitment has been continuously slowing down. There were 13,935 recruitments in the fourth quarter of the financial year 2025. Now this figure is said to fall by 72% in 10 lakh recruitments were made by IT companies in FY22, recruitments have been steadily declining in the subsequent years due to geopolitical pressures and AI. Last year, 7,700 professionals (who had more than 15 years of experience) were fired from their jobs. Which companies have already done layoffs? According to data from industry trackers, many big companies have done layoffs. Intel has done the most layoffs, which is 20% of their global workplace. Microsoft has eliminated 15,000 jobs, TCS has eliminated 12,000 jobs. Meta, Google, Amazon have eliminated between 20 to 25 thousand jobs. Apart from these, Klaviyo has eliminated 20% of its employees in July, Red Hat has eliminated 800 employees and Qorvo has eliminated 250 positions. However, the exact numbers of Salesforce, Cisco, Oracle are not known yet. Along with this, many other small startups are also included in this where 5 to 8 thousand jobs have been eliminated. Is AI became the reason? The reason behind job cuts is economic pressure and restructuring, but this big change has also come due to the adoption of AI. Routine and mid-level roles are being automated rapidly, this change is becoming a cause of unemployment. In the US alone, more than 740,000 employees have been fired across the industry since Covid, in which the tech sector is said to be the biggest contributor.
