Nope. If you have seen the launch footage then you can clearly see that the explosion in the cryogenic stage then the launch vehicle deviation. At the time of explosion the first stage and four strap on stages were working well.I am not sure though but it looks like that.

Until first ~20 seconds everything was rite. They were saying that first stage working normally.

Too bad. I was looking forward to this.
This one is a major set back. Our GSLV program has been riddled with problem since day 1.

2010 has been rather a bad year for ISRO.

But I hope the scientists at ISRO dont give up, because it is NOT in our nature to give up.

Jai Hind.

The engine was not indigenous. It was a russian engine. But it is the Indian solid booster which failed. The cryogenic stage wasn't even started yet.
