Manastu Space secures $3M to launch its green propulsion tech

Manastu Space has raised $3M in an extended Series A round led by Capital-A, with IAN and others participating. Funds will launch its green propulsion and debris-avoidance system, and advance satellite refuelling, deorbiting, and life extension tech. Founded by Tushar Jadhav and Ashtesh Kumar, its MS-289 propeller delivers 50% better performance. India’s $77B-by-2030 spacetech sector is accelerating, with peers like OmSpace, SatLeo Labs, and Astrogate also securing funding.
