India's mission to Mars will take place between 2013-2015, Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) chief G Madhavan Nair said today.  

"We have given a call for proposal to different scientific communities. Depending on the type of experiments they propose, we will be able to plan the mission," he told reporters.  

The mission is at conceptual stage and will be taken up after Chandrayaan-2, Nair said.  

"Once in two years you get an opportunity for the mission," Nair said.
