[supereffect]

In a significant and far-reaching development ISRO successfully launched 6 satellites of Singapore from Satish Dhawan Space Center at Sriharikota this evening at 6:00 p.m. This was an entirely commercial launch.
The launch was conducted by Antrix Corporation, the commercial arm of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).
Earlier this year ISRO conducted its thirtieth flight on July 10th 2015, deploying five British satellites into a Sun-Synchronous orbit.
The workhorse of India’s space program, the PSLV made its maiden flight in September 1994. For the Singapore customer, the PSLV flew in the Core Alone (PSLV-CA) configuration.
The success of today's launch will pay rich dividends by extending PSLV role as a commercially viable alternative to the more expensive global launch platforms, it is worthy to note that PSLV's launch per kilo rate is even cheaper even than China's.
