Space X launched ISROs 4,700 kg communication satellite from the US and put it into orbit.

According to ISRO's commercial arm NSIL, Space X successfully launched ISRO's newest communication satellite, GSAT-N2, from Cape Canaveral, the United States, into orbit.
In a series of posts on the microblogging site 'X,' NewSpace India Limited (NSIL) announced that the 4,700 kg GSAT-N2 High-throughput (HTS) satellite had been injected into the desired orbit.

"ISRO's Master Control Facility (MCF) has taken control of the 4700 kg GSAT-N2 after it was injected into the intended Geo-synchronous Transfer Orbit (GTO). According to preliminary data, the satellite is doing well," it stated.

GSAT-N2, an NSIL demand-driven satellite, is a 48 Gbps Ka-band high throughput communication satellite that will improve in-flight connectivity and broadband services throughout the Indian region, according to NSIL.

The Falcon 9 rocket from Space X launched the satellite.
