The 2000 kN thrust Semi-Cryogenic Engine (SCE-200) was successfully hot-tested for 6.5 seconds at the ISRO Propulsion Complex (IPRC) in Mahendragiri, Tamil Nadu, in May 2024.

The NGLV is envisioned as a cost-effective, three-stage, reusable heavy-lift launch vehicle capable of carrying payloads up to 10 tonnes to Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit (GTO) or 20 tonnes to Low Earth Orbit (LEO). Its reusability aims to significantly reduce launch costs.

ISRO's Semi-Cryogenic Engine (SCE-200) uses a combination of Liquid Oxygen (LOX) as oxidizer and refined Kerosene (ISROSENE) as fuel. This combination is more efficient and cost-effective than traditional solid or hypergolic propellants.
