Antrix Corporation, the commercial wing of Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), bagged business worth Rs 1,300 crore last year and is expecting over 15 per cent growth in the 2014-15 fiscal, its chairman and managing director V S Hegde said here today.

"We are keeping busy and we have many launches planned in the coming months," Hegde said.

Next in line is France's SPOT -7. "SPOT-7 is identical to SPOT-6, which ISRO launched earlier. SPOT-7 is an advanced earth observation satellite weighing 712 kg and we are also launching four other small co passengers," he explained.

Antrix has also signed contracts with Germany for a 800 kg satellite and three satellites for the United Kingdom.
