This was the first developmental flight of the GSLV Mk.I featuring Russian cryogenic engine KVD-1.It was used to place an experimental satellite GSAT-1 into the orbit. . However, due to sub-optimal performance and lack of fuel the vehicle did not achieve the intended orbit and the satellite had to maneuver itself using onboard fuel to correct the sho
