      ISRO's PSLV successfully launched the 727.5 kg Cartosat-2 Series Satellite along with 17  foreign country satellites in June 22, 2016 from Satish Dhawan Space Centre, Sriharikota,AP.The cost of a launch is around 350 million US Dollar

                  India's earth observation spacecraft Cartosat-2

                  SATHYABAMASAT,Chennai weighing 1.5 kg 

                  SWAYAM College Of Engineering, Pune weighing 1 kg

                  SkySat Gen2-1, a Google-made satellite from USA
                  12 Dove satellites from USA
                  GHGSat-D from Canada

       India is the 3rd country to launch 20 satellite in a single launch.Earlier,Russia launched 37 Satellite and USA 49 Satellite in a single launch. 
       India is the best country to launch a satellite while comparing with other countries because ISRO is known for its low-cost space programme. The secret behind ISRO is that all the equipment used for rocket is made in India.Last month,India successfully launched its first mini space shuttle and marked the 1st country to make reusable rockets at one billion rupees ($14 million).
     Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi tweeted, “A one-km auto rickshaw ride in Ahmedabad takes Rs 10 per km and India reached Mars at Rs 7 per km, which is really amazing"
