Ep.131 India’s Space Industry: Poised for Breakthrough or Bursting the Bubble? Part-I | Dr. Chaitanya GIRI

India’s space sector has been gaining global attention - but is the hype backed by hard numbers and real progress? In this episode, we dive deep into India's ambitions to scale its 2–3% share of the $8 billion global space economy. Are current policies like the Indian Space Policy 2023 and the creation of IN-SPACe truly capable of catalyzing private-sector innovation and global competitiveness?
Dr. Chaitanya Giri brings an insider's perspective on whether India’s emerging space industry can overcome challenges such as limited infrastructure, reliance on imports, and gaps in R&D investment. We also explore how India stacks up against global giants like the USA and China, and what it will take to create a self-reliant, innovation-driven, and globally relevant space ecosystem.
Is India on the cusp of a space-tech renaissance or are we overestimating what’s realistically achievable in the current landscape?
Tune in for a grounded, no-hype analysis of India’s space future.
