For the last 50 years, Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has seen a tremendous development in the field of space science and technology. Outer space exploration in social programme (education, telemedicine, communication and information) and economic activities (agricultural forecasting, meteorological data, telecommunication and broadcasting) helped India grow faster. Over the past few years, India is also engaging with other countries, offering them the space science and technology for their overall development. Very recently, Prime Minister of India offered the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) nations SAARC satellite for the socio-economic development of the region. Engaging with the SAARC countries will not only help India economically, but also geopolitically, and this is very important for India’s future security reasons. This article examines the tremendous success of India’s space programme in the socio-economic field and finds out the scope of extending India’s support to the SAARC nations for outer space development in the region. South Asia is considered as one of the most under-developed regions in the world, and this article tries to find out possible cooperation between India and SAARC nations in utilising the space science for socio-economic development of the inhabitants of the region.

The globe export policy and regulation policy in main earth observation countries are investigated. The comparison between the export satellites and the domestic commercial satellites are conducted. The Chinese export situation for earth observation is interpreted based on the analysis of the Venezuelan Remote Sensing Satellite (VRSS-1), five civil satellites launched before and after VRSS-1. The analyses indicate that the specification of export satellite for international client is accordance with satellite for domestic government customer in China. The export satellite specification can be possible to be improved. In addition, the export regulations of the leading countries for earth observation under scrutiny are investigated. The results indicate the satellite with the spatial resolution better than NIIRS 5 is competitive in the international market. Data with more moderate resolutions face competition from low-cost and free datasets. But, value-added services are expected to enhance the competitiveness.

India is one among the few developing countries that have sought to establish an aerospace industry. The industry has two components, namely aeronautical and astronautical. Historically speaking, India has focused much more on the astronautical part of the industry. However, in the present paper, the emphasis is on understanding the aeronautical part of the aerospace industry. We first map out the sectoral system of innovation of this industry, which is actually located as a cluster in the south Indian city of Bangalore. The paper identifies the three building blocks of the sectoral system: lead actors, knowledge or technology domain, and the demand. Changes in each of these blocks over time are discussed. The study concluded with a comparison of the performance of the sector in terms of exports and competitiveness and also delves on the policy instruments that are required for placing the industry on a sure flight path.
