Skyroot Aerospace Private Limited is an Indian private aerospace manufacturer and commercial launch service provider headquartered in Hyderabad, Telangana.[2][3] The company was founded by former engineers and scientists from ISRO. It aims to develop and launch its own series of small-lift launch vehicles especially crafted for the small satellite market.

Started in a small setup in Kondapur in 2018 with a team of 10, Skyroot is on a mission to open space for all, by pushing the boundaries of today's technology. Incubated in T-Hub[4] and supported by T-Works,[5] Skyroot Aerospace is India's first rocket launching private company.[6]
