New rocket being developed by ISRO to replace PSLV

The Next Generation Launch Vehicle (NGLV) is a rocket being constructed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to replace its ageing workhorse, the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV), which was created in the 1980s.

At a press conference held in conjunction with the "Engineers Conclave 2022" at the Liquid Propulsion Systems Centre (LPSC) at Valiyamala.

Semi-cryogenic technology, which is effective and affordable, will be used in this rocket. The new rocket might possibly be "reusable." "The payload of a reusable rocket will be less than that of an expendable one. The payload will be approximately five tonne if it is reusable and up to ten tonne if it is expendable. The payload characteristics were determined following a study of the demands of the present market.
