Tamil Nadu launched its Space Industrial Policy in April 2025 with the goal of attracting ₹10,000 crore in investments and creating 10,000 direct and indirect jobs over the next five years. This initiative places the state among the leading regions in India with dedicated plans to support the private space sector, alongside Karnataka and Gujarat. The policy promotes innovation in manufacturing, design, R&D, and electronics for space applications. With infrastructure like the ISRO Propulsion Complex in Mahendragiri and the upcoming spaceport at Kulasekarapattinam, Tamil Nadu is positioning itself as a major player in India’s growing space economy.
