₹150 crore was raised by Agnikul in order to improve reusable rockets, increase production, and prepare 3D-printed Agnibaan launches for worldwide customers.
Agnikul Cosmos announced that it has raised an additional ₹150 crore, raising the company's value to more than half a billion dollars. As it gets ready for commercial orbital missions, the business aims to use the extra funds to develop its reusable launch vehicle technology and increase production. Agnikul is preparing to launch tiny satellites into low Earth orbit using its fully 3D-printed Agnibaan rocket next year after successfully completing a suborbital rocket launch last year. Recovering and reusing the rocket's bottom stage is one of its main goals; this reduces cost and increases launch rate.
CEO and co-founder of Agnikul Cosmos, Srinath Ravichandran, stated, "This financing allows us to work on missions like this while we are also focusing on increasing launch rate." Advenza Global Limited, Atharva Green Ecotech LLP, HDFC Bank, Artha Select Fund, Prathithi Ventures, and 100X.VC are among the investors. The money will be used by the company to quicken its recovery program and grow its manufacturing operations for rocket and aerospace parts.
Agnikul's planned space campus, which will be built on 350 acres granted by the Tamil Nadu government, which will also profit from a share of the investment. The facility will support the company's reusable launch architecture and house launch vehicle manufacturing and testing systems. Work based on Agnikul's recently granted patent is part of this project to increase the lifespan of higher rocket stages.
Co-founder and COO Moin SPM stated, "Increasing our operational complexity was the natural next step with growing demand and a number of customers ready to launch with us." With customers from Australia, the Middle East, and India, Agnikul aims to meet the demand for launches worldwide and support India's growing position in the space technology industry.
