Who We Are

India's First Full-Stack Private Orbital Launch Company

Astramile Aerospace Private Limited is India's first full-stack private orbital launch company, building a complete ecosystem of liquid propellant rockets and satellites from a 100-acre integrated campus in Andhra Pradesh with its Corporate Office at Hyderabad. Founded in December 2025 by a military veteran along with a team of ex-ISRO/DRDO veterans, Astramile is developing the Rudra series of all-liquid semi cryogenic LOX/RP-1 rockets — from small satellite launchers to heavy-lift and lunar mission vehicles — powered by a single scalable 10-ton engine platform. Our mission: To make India a global leader in affordable, reliable, and reusable orbital access.

Born from decades of collective experience at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), and India's premier defence and missile programmes, Astramile combines institutional aerospace pedigree with the speed and ambition of a new deep-tech space company. Our founding team has previously shipped, tested, and qualified propulsion, avionics, and structural systems on flight-grade vehicles — and we are channelling that experience into a vertically integrated organisation where rockets, satellites, ground systems, and launch operations are designed, built, and qualified under one roof.

The Rudra family — RUDRA, RUDRAX, and MAHARUDRA — is engineered around a single scalable 10-tonne-class Liquid Propulsion Semi Cryogenic LOX/RP-1 engine platform. By clustering and optimising this common engine across vehicle classes, we drastically reduce development cost, qualification time, and supply-chain complexity, enabling responsive launches for small satellites today and heavy-lift, lunar, and reusable missions tomorrow. Every stage is designed with reusability in mind from day one, because driving down the cost-per-kilogram to orbit is non-negotiable for the next orbital economy.

Our 100-acre integrated campus in Andhra Pradesh is planned to house propulsion test stands, vehicle assembly bays, satellite cleanrooms, mission control, and R&D laboratories — all interconnected to compress the design–build–test cycle that typically slows aerospace development. Astramile exists for one reason: to make affordable, reliable, and reusable orbital access an Indian capability — democratising space for commercial, scientific, and strategic missions, and putting India at the forefront of the next era of human exploration.
