Astrome Technologies Secures ₹64 Crore Government Support For AI-Powered Satellite Constellation

Bengaluru-based Astrome Technologies has secured ₹64.05 crore in support from the government’s Research, Development and Innovation (RDI) Fund to develop an AI-enabled electronic intelligence satellite constellation. The agreement was signed with the Technology Development Board (TDB), which will support around half of the ₹128.11 crore project through optionally convertible debt.

The project aims to develop a network of 50-kg-class microsatellites in low Earth orbit, equipped with electronic intelligence payloads to detect and analyse radio and radar signals. The system will combine satellite-based signal collection, AI-powered ground processing and inter-satellite communication links, with the goal of advancing India's sovereign space-based intelligence capabilities.
