So far, the funding and technological collaboration of the space tech startups have been very encouraging. Funding into this sector jumped 198% in 2021.
Over 55 new startups have registered with the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and the Department of Space (DoS) since the opening up of the sector to private players in 2020.
Whether or not Spacex comes to India, the Indian space tech ecosystem is large enough to attract billions in funding and innovate to make India a commercial space tech hub.
Mind you, the ecosystem is brand new and much bigger than that of electric vehicles.

Lithium is the new oil. It is the key component of electric batteries.
There is a huge demand for electric batteries coming from the EV industry, large data centres, telecom companies, railways, power grid companies, and many other places.
So, in the coming years and decades, we could possibly see a sharp rally in the stocks of electric battery making companies.
If you're an investor, then you simply cannot ignore this opportunity.
